<p>[QUOTE="mark_h, post: 235885, member: 3726"]I am going to post in this order 1909, 1890, 1888, 1879 - so patience while I do uploading of pictures. 2 Are NGC graded, but I believe one is off and should be an MS63. Not really disappointed in the grade, but the feather tips on the 1888 are not as strong as I think they should be. Not saying anything about NGC, but this <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-S-Indian-Head-Penny-1C-NGC-VF20BN_W0QQitemZ130118446100QQihZ003QQcategoryZ41086QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-S-Indian-Head-Penny-1C-NGC-VF20BN_W0QQitemZ130118446100QQihZ003QQcategoryZ41086QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" rel="nofollow">auction</a> brings to mind - buy the coin not the slag.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Maybe the picture is just bad on the auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now for the order - the 1906 is first because what looks like might be reverse scratchs are not. The 1890 is second because of the texture of the copper - it almost looks like feathers all over the surface under the scope - it is really a neat copper mixture. Only did the obverse on the 1890 cause my batteries died on my camera. Have to juice them back up. Then the 79 and 88. You might notice a little glare on them because of the lighting trying to get the feathers as best as possible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
