Semi Key Date Indian and Flat Buttons

[Bell-Two]

Diane and I went out to a new field site yesterday we had hoped it had dried up but it was still very muddy. We checked out this site a week ago but we got caught in some rain showers and it was so super muddy then we just barely had a chance to hunt, with Paul making the only good find a 1904 Indian. We were able to find some patches that were not as bad but only Diane found a keeper in them a 1944-D Wheatie! She also found a couple of Sunoco Car Tokens near the site we believe the house sat on but it was way too muddy to hunt there much. After going back to the car to clean off some mud we went down a bit to the School House site in this same field near where Paul had found his Indian. In less than five minutes hunting this area I got a solid 12-35 and popped out a super crusty Indian, the only way I could tell that is I could make out the shield on the back. Diane got a nice flat button and I got one too. The mud was so bad here we decided to call it a day. After getting home and cleaning the Indian up a bit I could see the date 1872 which after the 1877 along with the 1909-S is considered the hardest date to find.

That sure is a hard IH to find. :congrats: on all those keepers and for braving the MUD.

That 1872 Indian Head is definitely a rare one, Tony, and one that is seldom found! It's in typical condition for a field find, but at least the date is 100% clear on it.

I'll bet there are a lot more goodies for you and Diane to find in that field after the mud dries up some! thumbsup01
