Thread: Thanks for leaving me one!

    Thanks for leaving me one!

    I got out with Don and later our buddy Mark. The very 1st yard Don gets his two cent wish answered. But at least I got a barber dime (1902 O). Then we traded sides of the yard and I got my first fatty Indian (1860)! Almost all of our finds came from that yard. Did get a another Indian later in the day and then the last yard of the day got a Mercury dime and a token. Great day! Name:  5970EB88-7BF8-4F94-B7E1-28F96B1F889E.jpg

    Congrats on your first FATTY Indian Head, Tim! I'm glad I showed you how to find one last time.

    You had a great day with lots of nice finds! I really love that silver spoon bowl with the giant ferris wheel on it. It is definitely from the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago!

    Congrats on your Fatty, Noah! Nice ID on the spoon, guys. I guessing you searched the area like crazy trying to find the handle.
