1898 Indian Head penny

26 Aug

I found this Indian Head penny at the house of a co-worker. I had already detected his front yard going South to North and found many wheat pennies but nothing else. The house was built in 1910 in the College Hill area.

I went back another day and worked the front yard from East to West and voila! I got this IH and a no-date Standing Liberty quarter with stars under the eagle (type 2). This hunt happened on the second week of August, 2011
