So i've recently started metal detecting with my dad's old Whites Spectrum XLT and this was my first major find. I did some research looking at some old aerials and maps to learn locations of past houses. I found a construction site that happened to clear out a few old houses to put in new ones, and I decided to detect there for a bit and see what I get. To my surprise i find this fairly good condition Indian Head Penny with a date of 1890.
The camera doesn't really show all the little details on the front or back but it looks a little better in person. I've metal detected a lot before with my dad but now the metal detector is basically mine because he doesn't use it anymore. We've found other Indian Head Pennies before but this find was all me this time.
