WEEKEND FINDS AN INDIAN AND WHEAT


It was back to my son's school on Friday - would like to hunt other places but he likes to practice his kicking there.  I did manage to find over a buck 60 so I guess it wasn't too bad. 

Saturday I hit a couple of houses that were built back in the 1800's.  Only found clad at both - 76 cents - not much luck hunting old houses, hope I get better - but I did find an Indian head penny - my second this year at a near by church.  It came up as a nickel/pull tab but I'm glad I dug it.  Can't get an exact date so I will keep it in the olive oil for awhile and maybe it will work.

Sunday morning back again to the school where I found the V and 9 wheat pennies.  Was hoping silver would make a guest appearance but just wheat pennies again - 3 more for a total of 12 in this one area.  Also found 3 Canadian pennies and over a buck 30 in clad.  I hope there is silver in there since I'm still finding the wheat pennies.
