AAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
I must be the only person in the history of penny sorting who has not found an Indian Head. |
"Rich," the Old Man said dreamily, "is not baying after what you can't have. Rich is having the time to do what you want to do. Rich is a little whiskey to drink and some food to eat and a roof over your head and a fish pole and a boat and a gun and a dollar for a box of shells. Rich is not owing any money to anybody, and not spending what you haven't got." Robert Ruark

I might be able to get a well known member to back my findings to prove that I did find 3 Indians in 2 weeks. I might ask or if he sees this he can approve this.
As for the 1907 indian, its the best shape yet. You can make out the liberty, but its still worn. But the details are amazing and its my guess its above common circ. quality Indians.
Sorry for the mispellings, just excited. I might have a roll by May the way things are going!

Yep, you are not the only one who hasn't found one yet, texcattlerancher. I think our "club " is smaller than those who have found one....

Plain and simple.

I can confirm Robarons findings - he only lives 8 miles from me - amazingly, we have only just recently started to bump into each other in terms of bank returns/pick-ups.....I just got my first $100 of sorted zinc last week....
He and I are now coordinating our activities to avoid each others hoarding.
Robarons is a very smart, nice young man - there may be hope for our future if there are more of his type around! |

Don't give up if you have not found an Indian yet. I have the worse luck when it comes to discovery and live in Georgia where good finds don't happen. If I can do it, anyone can. Volume truly is key.
Now, back to looking for that flying eagle... |

I believe you. I just want to see a picture of the condition of it. Kind of like Treasurenet. The picture makes the find more fun for those on the sidelines. |

| None for me yet. I don't sort the volume some of you do, but the only Indians I have were bought or given to me. |
Are you throwing that out? |
