tehre is a variety for your 1864
known as 1864 L
http://www.coinfacts.com/small_cents/indian_head_cents/1864L_cent.htm

 

some are non L of that year.

 

I want to see the 1872, pretty much a semi key so to speak.

 

Is the '64 a CN (Copper-Nickel) or Bronze? If Bronze, is it an 'L' or a 'No L'?

'72 is rare. Only 4 million minted. Grey Sheet is $78 in Good.

Check your '08 & '09 for mintmarks. Those would be valuable.

 

yah

 

my eyes are doing the shimmy. since i will post more than 130 pics for this thread and over a 1000 pics for the other threads upto 1933. i will let you experts guide me

 

i am not going to make any guesses you guys let me know (it looks copper nickel felt cold all other coins were warm except the 63)

i just figured out the 72 is rare

the 8 and 9 have no mintmarks i checked already

 

post the 72 already *whips*

 

down boy down

 

ok here are some pics

let me know if somethign jumps out

anything to be slabbed
anything to be cleaned (preserved )
etc et

you guys know the drill

 

is that the 72 spock?
its pretty much a gonner.

 

thats a dateless try to figure that out i need to know the date it might be more valuable than the 72 i dont believe its a cheap non collectible coin or it would not be in that bag

 

Well, considering the condition, I doubt even if you could see the date that it'd be worth much.
The 72 is pretty rough, considering all the green on it... well, you actually might want to eh... preserve it. but either way, I dont think that will command a premium as much as one that was more worn down, but no green.

 

what do you suggest for the 72 to preserve it?

 

put it in a 2x2 and send it to me.



but seriously... I dunno, bathe it in something to get the green off? lol

 

bathe it in what thing? how do we see that date? any idea about the 1864 variety?

 

I dunno man >_<
there are a couple posts in these parts about how to get green off.

maybe someone else has another idea.
Although Im sure you'll get plenty of responses to leave it alone.


how do we see the date on that other one? no idea!

the '64 variety has to be in XF or so to be able to see it. (its a little "L" near the ribbon)

 

this coin is valuable and if i screw up then its 400 bucks in fine condition makes this a candidate for NCS?
