Some real beauties here in this thread...I am enjoying looking at them all.
Just for a change here is one that is not so pretty but at the time the most beautiful coin I ever dug because it was my first IH and oldest coin to that point found with the Compadre..
Bent up and almost destroyed by mowers or something, I had to use a hammer to straighten it out and so crusty I had to use a ton of elbow grease to get it looking even this good.
Couldn't be any happier or prouder of myself when I found it.
Still remember that feeling.

Here is a collection of Indians I found last year and first of this year. I guess I need to learn how to take pictures. Couldn't get the glare off of them. The oldest one I have found is 1879.

I found this one at one of my colonial fields. It truly has a beautiful patina and immaculate details. I don't think I'll ever find one better than this.
