What's better than 8 Morgan Dollars.......THIS

Safari Scott · Mar 15, 2011

So I went out hunting today to a few different spots. Started out slow alot of trash......about an hour in I got a nice coin signal with the safari dug a couple inches down and there was an Indian Head.......Rechecked the hole and there was another. Looked at the date on the first 1890.........The second one completely shocked me it said 1877. I couldn't believe it, I thought I'd have a tough time beating last tuesdays hunt (Guess I was wrong) Continued on and pulled my first V nickel 191? pretty beat up. Good a few other odds and ends and three buttons.

Sweeeeeeet! Congrats.....2 IH's in the same hole? Not to mention the "slightly" key date 1877.....that is worth $800, $900, $1,000 perhaps??? :shock:

Very nice! I'd still rather pull out 8 morgans. :lol:

Great find Congrats!

Looks like the Indian Head is in pretty good shape and if you take into condieration it is 134 yrs old AND has been in dirt for some portion of that, probably a great portion of that..Awsome find.

NHKeith · Mar 16, 2011

WOW, that is all I can say. you found the BEST date for injuns!!

I would send that in to get graded and see how it goes.

Keep hitting the same spot!!
