I was browsing for coin holders and I came across this Capital Plastics holder. It has inspired me to try and fill it up. I sold off my Indian cents a few years ago and really regret it. (Not just because the dealer maliciously lowballed the grades and generally gouged me.) I had some coins I really miss and that I don’t think I can replace. At any rate, it will take me a while to rebuild even this part of the set, but if I get the right coins, that will be OK. For example, here are the 1900’s that I used to have. And this is the replacement I got. Full resolution photos When I get a few coins in the new holder, I’ll post a new photo of how the set is coming along.
Good luck on the short set of IHC. I also sold most of mine years ago. I did hang on to a few of my favorites, but the last extra ones of those went to auction this year. I am down to three for the typeset.
Great fun! I will always have a special place in my heart for Indian Cents. I will also admit that my Indian set of PCGS 64 cents is the only time I lost money on every single coin in a GC auction. I would still pursue Indian Cents if I had the money but it might be awhile before I can chase them again. Good luck and enjoy. James
Honestly, I haven’t figured that out yet. It’s a bit scary but it will depend on my cash flow when we get that far. Still, fortune favors the bold. If I were an influencer this would be my way of ensuring you stay tuned while I figure it out.
