    Return to the Indian Head Field

    At the end of last season I had a great run of Indian Heads, finding 10 in 10 days. This field accounted for 6 of them. This is the first time we have been back since the snow started flying. Today it was good to me again. Two Indians and two tokens. Found a wick adjuster for an oil lamp, a nice big spoon as well. Diane found a 1924 Wheatie a watch bezel and a Long John Silver's token. Since the LJS token has a date of 1754 on it she is claiming membership in the "1700's cub" The LJS token is from a set issued in 1976. The trade tokens from J. Ryan Dayton Rubber Stamp Works are not listed in the Ohio Merchant Token book or on Richards database so more research is needed on them.

    Congrats on the Indians, and if you consistently are still finding them I'm sure the site has more to offer! Love the LJS token as well. When you find those goofy tokens, always funny how there's that 1-3 seconds of..."Wow, what have I here?!"...followed by "what on Earth??".
