This hobby just keeps gettin' better and better. The earth is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get. About the third time out this season, I chanced upon an old abandoned school and within a minute or so dug up my first Indian head cent - a nice 1889. Wow, what fun!

Wiping away the years of dirt, I grumbled low to myself "another damn old penny - well, maybe it's at least a wheaty...." I wiped it with a little spit to expose the back of the penny and lo and behold - a beauty of an Indian cent.

A little while later, I dug up a pocket spill of wheats and the nice '50 Rosie shown.

I LOVE THIS HOBBY! :)

Best of luck to all in '09!

ATA-BOY on the first!!!! Indian heads are always nice to save from the dirt! Not every day is filled with silver or oldies, but its the hunt that keeps us at it. 8)
