Nabbed a few more indians and of course a button....

The 1880 and the 1878 were deep hits and both within a few feet of each other. They both have the full liberty in the head band. Cool. The 1889 was about 5 inches down in the side yard. The wheatie is a 1916. I wish I woulda been the first one to hit the place but 4 left behind indians isn't bad. A fun old spot.

'Fess up, JimC. How did you clean them great Indians?

 

[Justice70]

Nice finds. I bet that button is cool

'Fess up, JimC. How did you clean them great Indians?

Like I always have. The peroxide in microwave method. But its mainly the great soil we have in Michigan. When ya find em in old yards they usually come out real nice.

Gosh, gotta get some of that soil transplanted westward! Most of my little indians are so corroded you can almost see through 'em. And the zincolns are sometimes just a thin copper shell of what they used to be. Rarely find any good quality Wheaties. Guess the soil here is just bonkers on coppers.
