Here’s mine I pulled yesterday from the park down the street. I don’t think it was carried for long before dropped.

The current Tribe from this year. I am very happy with the condition of (most of) these as a ton of IHPs come out toasted it seems.

After a quick rain, before the overwhelming heat and humidity, I quick-scanned a permission yard one block from home. No silvers there yet, but a few moderns, 2 wheats and this 1893.
First, I thought the one side looked like it had the fat wreath of an IH, but I couldn't tell. I rubbed a little dirt off and found the outline of the headdress on the other side. I exclaimed out loud; "it's an Indian!". Then I noticed a girl walking past me on the sidewalk, a few feet away. She had dark skin and black hair...like a "real" Indian...from India. She was looking at me, so I held up the coin, and said to her: "Indianhead penny!" She gave me a quick, kind of sour smile, and kept walking. I immediately realized that she, being maybe teenaged, has probably never heard of and Indianhead penny, and can only hope she didn't think I was mocking her or something. Oh well, I found an 1893 ONE CENT coin today! Back into air-conditioned hiding now.

I know everyone has their favorite slang for the different common coins that are found what book from Amazon would someone suggest I order they would help me identify most of the early American coins that I would run across since I haven't had any idea what the cohens were that I've seen people finding on the YouTube videos where they're running across or coin every 5 minutes on someone's property they talked about 1700 1800s half pennies and King George's and lingo that I haven't a clue what they're talking about?

I am having my best IHP year to date so far in 2020. Actually I'm having a great year detecting so far. I have dug 6-7 IHP's so far with the oldest being a 1863. My first fatty.

These are mine. I actually have 13 total but I have given a few away to homeowners that gave me permission. I have 2 1859s that I dug at a cellar hole near my house. I included my flying eagle I found the other day just to brag again! My favorite is the two that are stuck together. Not sure if they were in a fire but it almost looks like a silver coin melted them together, which would be my luck.
