To start with the 1910 wheat was found on another hunt at a park

Today I went to a house that a friend had purchased to flip, a 1900 colonial. First item was a memorial cent :girlcry:. Oh no not one of these hunts where the expectations are high but .......that was not the case.

Next up was a 1926 merc :yahoo:then the IH's started to pop. I ended up with 6 total, most I ever got in one hunt and they are 87, 88,89,97,01,03. Strange though, not one wheat. Also managed to find a very nice (full liberty) 1908 Barber dime.:happydance01:

Got a nice watch fob which says For Health and Happiness 100% Pure Wards Baking Co Wards Fine Cakes (I'll google them later). Also a flat button with the back mark of Scovills Treble Gilt.

I have not a clue as to what the little boy and girl thing is. It looks xmas as I think that they are caroling.

When I can add a coin to my signature then that's what I call a good hunt.

Thanks for reading and HH.

That was a great hunt for sure, Al! Six Indian Heads in one yard is amazing! :thumbsup02:

It is really odd that you didn't find any wheat cents there. :confused:

Good job on the Barber and Merc! Pretty soon we will be able to find Mercury Dimes that are 100 years old. :thumbsup01:
