Default Like I Had Two Heads
Got out for a short hunt this evening at a local park. I wasn't expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised when I pulled a 1904 Indian Head cent. Very strange because I went all last year without finding a single one of these and here I have two of them in as many nights at completely different spots. You just never know. It was a nice evening and a nice hunt. Total of 29 coins worth $2.79 indluding the Indian Head and a 1949 nickel.

Happy Hunting!

Great finds! To think, you went a whole year without finding one, then you find two in as many days! It's one of those mysteries of life, and the same thing has happened to me before! I wonder if there are more at that location?
