I was sitting here thinking that I had not found an Indian head cent this year and then I decided to go out hunting for a bit.
I took Maurice to Riverside park to dig some deep targets. Towards the end of my hunt I pulled my first Indian of the year. Well, it is mostly an Indian:
If you tilt your head just right and make liberal use of your imagination you can see this coin was at one time, an Indian Head cent. No way to get a year out of it but since it was very deep and it was found at the second oldest park in Wichita, I will count it as an 1864 Indian Head…he he he. Ok, it will have to remain undated.
That is all I found of any note.
Thank you for stopping by!
No imagination needed! It’s definitely an Indian Head. It appears to me to be 1880ish as well. Congrats!
Where I found it, I dug a fistful of square nails as well. I am very curious as to what may have stood there back in the day.
