My first pre-1900 coin!

[laralucine]

An Indian Head cent! I went to a local school today and had a very frustrating couple of hours - tons of pull tabs and foil, not even a cent of clad. Then I found the necklace below (3rd pic), but it was laying on the surface, so it felt like it didn't really count

Then, just as I was thinking I'd give up for the day, I found this! 1889

after a couple more hours, lots more trash and $.51 (including a 2001 VT state quarter), got tired and came home happy.

The last pic is leftovers from last weekend - found the Zippo in my grandma's front yard.

Thanks for looking, and HH!
