Past couple of hunts gives up an old indian and button

[Johnny Ringo Silver]

I dug this button last week and it turns out that it was made between 1830 & 1840 by W.H. Jones and Co.
and has a waterbury mark on it also. The indian is one of my oldest yet. It was down at 5.5in and is an 1874. 8)

JR,
Nice button and IH. The 1874 is the first year I ever found too. That year is worth a few bucks . Way to go.

Indian head cents are always a great find... when the date is 1874 then doubly so.

Yep. Any date in the late 1870's is a good un.

Nice finds! Anytime you can squeeze an old coin out of the soil is a good hunt.
