Wood Lot Indian

[smokedaddy]

I dug this 1878 IH in a heavy wooded area. It is in great condition unlike many of the green coroded field types. I am guessing it is due to no fertilizers used in the woods. It did have a dark oxidation that after it was soaked, I could scratch it off with my fingernail. It came up fairly nice. Just a note, it was reading a broken signal and not the usual coin sound. Anyway I posted a pic of it.

Great find SD. The liberty is still sharp around the head. That is the first place i look to see what kind of shape it's in

Hey Hogge, us here in SE Penna have been skating the big stuff you guys are getting. I have a strange feeling that we are going to get our turn real soon .

Many of the indians I've found don't read the "regular"
signal for my machine. I don't know why!

Great condition IH and a pretty good date at that. The last 2 IH I found this year gave extremely poor signals, and they were not all that deep. I only dug the signals because of the number of old coins, including IH that came from the site I was hunting.

Excellent find, hope there more good finds back in those woods
