Got my Rydale "Ace" for this Thanksgiving break and started on my first $100 worth of pennies. About $25 in I found my first Indian Head, a 1906 beauty. Found a few wheats, but still have a lot more to go. Also picked up about 30 rolls of solid copper from a bank up the street. Makes sorting easy.

| You found an IH in the first $25 you sorted? Congrats. It takes most of us thousands of dollars worth before we find one. |
You don't have to be the BEST you just have to be.......SLICK

Nice find. First $25 sorted? Beginners luck, hehe.
Deal |
Live free or die.
Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
- Samuel Adams |

| That's awesome! And a shiny beauty too! Found my first IH yesterday - probably went through $500 worth to find it. And it's as corroded and blackened as possibly could be. |

In the little over one year that I have searched coins, I have searched between 85,000 and 90,000 pennies (not rolls) and have yet to find one. I know that is a small amount of coins searched for the majority of you, but a huge amount for me. But I can always hope. And reading of the finds made by so many of you continues to give me hope. So I continue searching.
Continued success. |

I have found four so far, all were in the reject box. If you are not looking in your Zincoln box, you may never find one. |

| I have done pretty well when it comes to indian heads. In the last two years I have found probably 10. However no special dates and some were pretty poor. But it sure is nice when you find one. |
