This is a new personal record for me 18 Indians, Seated Dime, Barber Dime, And V Nickel from same site! They came from a site dates from the 1880's to the 1920's that was used as a picnic grove. The grove is on private property and the current owner has denied many metal detetectorist permission to hunt over the years. Knowing that he had told others no before, I knew my chances were very slim that I would be granted permission to hunt the grove. Regardless, I drove over to his house and chatted with the owner for awhile. After about 20 minutes of chit chat he gave me the OK to detect. WOW! I could hardly believe it. Two days later I returned with my detector and a fresh set of batteries. I pounded the grove all day and ended up with 8 Indian heads, a nice seated dime, and a nice barber dime. I returned to the site today and hit it again. No silver this time but found 10 Indian heads and a V Nickel. From just two hunts the site has yielded 18 Indian Pennies, some of which are in VERY nice condition.
This is the most indians I have ever found from one site. I plan to return next week, I am sure there are still lots of goodies out there!
