Thread: Five Indians in a Small Yard

    Five Indians in a Small Yard

    This hunt was a little over a month ago. I plan to go back to this permission if it ever stops raining here. Surprising number of Indian Heads in such a small yard. The owner just bought the lot next door and said I could hunt it too, but it is mostly gravel parking lot.

    Way to go Tony! Small lots and yards can sometimes be big producers as nobody thinks anything will be there.

    I went back to this same small yard on Tuesday of this week and found a few more oldies. The Barber Dime is 1906 with no mint mark.

    Very productive yard, Tony! Nice pics and video too! I don't have a 1919 S wheat penny. I seldom dig S or D coins...I wonder if anyone has info on how they were distributed. Congrats on a good looking permission!
