    Really unworthy

    Considering what Don found, what I got on the same day hardly deserves posting but here it is.

    Indian are 1865, 1889 and 1894. The 1865 is toasted compared with the crisp sweet 1889. Soil conditions really make a difference!

    Congrats Don on a stellar hunt!

    I would take a hunt like that any day! Two SLQs? I think that's awesome! I really like the Pontiac token too and I would like to see both sides of it. Are either of the SLQs a Type I?

    Pretty cool that both you and Don found 1865 Indian Heads!

    10 Large Cents, 415 Indian Heads, 2 Two Cent Pieces, 1 Capped Bust Half Dime, 1 Seated Half Dime, 10 Shield Nickels, 68 V Nickels, 124 Buffalo Nickels, 31 War Nickels, 16 Seated Dimes, 131 Barber Dimes, 405 Mercury Dimes, 249 Rosies, 4 Seated Quarters, 18 Barber Quarters, 20 Standing Liberty Quarters, 89 Silver Washingtons, 1 Seated Half, 3 Barber Halves, 16 Walking Liberty Halves

    Oh its worthy Dont fool yourself.
    We all can't be like Don. Which is ok too. I'm not sure I'd like the feel of a horseshoe wedged in there like he has.

    Good hunt Tim!
    Congrats!
