Barber * Tokens * Relics * And The Biggest Indian Head I've Ever Seen !

[E-Trac-Ohio]

We finally got a break in the Winter weather here in Ohio - so I was able to get out for a hunt at a old abandoned farm house and around a few 1800's cellar holes in the woods.
While I was at the abandoned farm house, I noticed the face of a Indian carved in a big stone in the backyard - it's approx. 18" wide - pretty cool !

The 1903 Barber Dime was only 3" down at the abandoned farm house - being so shallow - I was just hoping for a silver Rosie or maybe even a Merc ... surprise !

As always, the 1867 (semi-key date) Indian Cent is in better condition than shown in the photo's - I can never get good photo's of Indian's with my camera for some reason.

The one cent "Andy - Bobby" dry goods store Token is from the 1909 era - according to the on-line Token database.

The old cast metal Salt Shaker was found in the woods near a cut sandstone cellar hole.

Good Hunting !

awsome hunt do you know the history on the carved stone

 

[E-Trac-Ohio]

I have no historical info. on the carving but I'm going to show it to a friend of mine that's a serious Indian arrow head hunter / collector and see what he has to say.
