    Nice finds. This metal detecting thing gets more tempting every year. Pic of the Indian?

    Some people laugh (including my girlfriend) when they see guys with metal detectors at the beach.

    Personally, I am ready to get one. The only thing differant is that I will not wear black socks and sandals as I do my "searches".

    Some people like to golf, when I retire, I want to fish and scan the areas for coins.

    Believe me, I felt like such a dork when I first started detecting in public. Headphones, walking around staring at the ground. I used to think people who I saw doing that looked goofy.
    Oh well, I'm a goofy looking dork now BUT I'm finding some cool old coins. :D
    Hey Art the indian is ind pretty nice shape but for a blob of stuff over the date. Might be able to clean it up some. If ya still wanna see it I'll post a pic. Jim

    Very nice find sir. You are an inspiration to all of us that plug away with the metal detectors.
