This Indian has seen better days

[beerguy]

Hey all. I did not get any silver on my fathers day hunt, but I found a few things. A small plated ring, a few newer coins, but I do not find a ton of Indian Head pennies.

I found this 1896 penny, it got impacted on the obverse from what I can tell.

It is hard to find something this old at this site and still be able to date it, as things get corroded pretty badly.


I also pulled a wheatie, a 1944 S.


No silver today, but a nice hunt in the rain.

My kind of fathers day.

Thanks for looking and HH to all.

..: GREAT FIND BeerGuy :..
Remember - finding a 1896 Penny - regardless of condition - is a great find!​

Shame about the IHP being damaged. I'll take it off your hands.

I agree, it is still an IH and even toasted that badly still a great find, at least some of us think so
