Hello everyone. I gained permission to hit an old swimming hole area today. I don't have a water detector so, I hunted the edge and the wooded line. I was happy with all the trash I dug to land two old nasty Indian Head pennies. Consecutive dates also 1895, and 1896!

Not the best shape, but at least they're pre-1900.:icon_thumright: Did you use peroxide on them?

Thanks PG. I'm hoping to get back but, the owner has the,"mine syndrome" He allowed me to detect but, was not real comfortable with a stranger on his property. Gonna try again though.
 

I'll take a nasty Indian over a pretty Wheat any day. Congrats!! :icon_thumleft:
 

Cool old finds from the 'ol swimmin hole! I finally located the 100+year old swimmin hole in a village near me, but %$#@&!!, it was filled in 20 years ago when the town revamped main st. ffd
