    A Couple of Indians and a Silver Ring

    Hey everyone. Sorry i haven't been posting much lately, just been really busy lately!

    I did manage to get out today. I hunted several hours and came home with 3 Keepers, all from one yard.
    First was a 1902 Indian, then a sterling ring and finished off with a 1903 Indian.

    Outstanding discoveries.

    I love it when I find two similar coins in the same area and they have closely related or consecutive dates. Makes me feel like they were once in someones pocket and they have been reunited after all these years.

    Nice little haul Don, and as always love those sharp little green Indians. Silver bling will put a smile on most detectorists' faces.
