My First Indian - Now My Oldest Coin

[Indiana Digger]

Hi Everyone,

I've been taking advantage of the unusually warm stretch of weather we're having and took off for a few hours this morning.

I came up with this 1896 drilled Indian Head.



It's my first Indian - first drilled coin - oldest coin.

Quick lunch and back to it!

Happy Hunting!

Congrats on your IH! Too bad it was holed -- odd to see a holed IH cent, but a nice find 4 sure!!

Way to go on the Indian. I told you that Whites SL II was a great detector. You have to share the story sometime. Let us know what you find this afternoon.

HH, Don

Nice find and great condition too!!
Don't feel bad about the hole.. adds character!!
I have a "holed" 1880 IH cent I found about 2 years ago.
Congradulations,
