Spent another hour hunting the old home site...

[PhilB]

I hate hunting corn fields. It's almost impossible to thoroughly cover the ground even using a small coil. Been averaging 2 coins an hour at this site and the newest coin was dated 1865. Today I got 2 IH pennies and a big handful of non-ferrous stuff(buttons, bullets, buckles and such). Also dug the large iron I ran across to get it out of the way. Here's the pennies I found today. The left IH is an 1860 fattie and the other one is an 1864. If it doesn't rain tomorrow I'm going back.

Good luck then
But an indanhead is always a sweet find.

Well done PhilB.
I just got back from LaPorte, Ind after a 15 hour drive. I didn't have my detector with me & was drooling over all the cut fields up there. Beautiful time of year in Indiana.
Keep up the great coin recoveries.
