The old farmstead gives up silver and Indians.

[Merf]

I spent a couple of afternoons pounding the yard at the old 1855 farmstead and found these.
The yard is very trashy but I am getting it thinned out. I dug everything above iron today and would need a wide angle lens to show all the trash. It payed off. I found the Barber yesterday and the Indians today. The 76 indian is damaged, [I did not do it.]
Found another old lamp wick holder and the live round.
I don't know if the round is old or not.
Best luck to all and thanks for looking. Merf

Merf. . . nice Indians & Barber!

That 1865 one is in really nice shape!. . . Even though that 1876 is damaged, I wouldn't leave it in the hole

Take care,

Great job Merf. Congrats on the old coins. Nice silver. I have a bell like that first picture, and a lantern knob like yours too. Very cool.

That 1876 is in great condition except for the ding. The 1865 is a dandy too. I wasn't able to identify any civil war relics in the bunch though......sorry All of those finds are the right time period, Maybe some more Civil War stuff will turn up. Great finds!

Sure hope you are right Joe---I will be pounding that spot again.

Sweet Barber. Even sweeter are the pair of IH's. Such good looking coins.....worth some decent $. Even with the slight damage on that '76 IH it's a great coin.

I can understand lower discrimination = IH's What about the Barber...was it being masked?
