Message:: [QUOTE="Chip Kirkpatrick, post: 7539643, member: 101265"]I have none of the quality shown here but I want to share my story concerning Indian Heads. as a metal detectorist IHs were high on my bucket lists. For 5 years I dug every penny signal I came across with no success. a woman contacted me who wanted to learn about metal detecting and invited me to her house. We talked about an hour then she asked to watch me use one of my machines. We went to the area beside the road and driveway and I said, “If we’re lucky we might find a penny!”  I made my first swing and BAM! there was a penny signal practically on the sidewalk and so shallow I could see the outline under the sand. I plucked it out and blew the sand off before dropping it in her hand, saying “Here’s your first buried treasure!” She examined it and said, “Cool! 1887!” yep found my first Indian head and gave it away. since then I’ve found several dozens, including a ‘64 fatty.[/QUOTE]
