<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 25790277, member: 101855&quot;]I built a set of Indian cents when I was in high school and college. I sold it many years ago. Recently I started forming it again. I&#039;m down to three coins. Oddly enough the 1869, which gave me trouble in the late 1960s, is one of those coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have tried to build the set mostly with EF grade pieces, but there are a couple of exceptions. I liked the looks of this Mint State piece.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1646040[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And I goofed up a bit on the 1872, which is one of the better dates. I didn&#039;t overpay for this. It&#039;s just not quite up to EF using net grades.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1646041[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a bit trivia. The 1908-S Indian Cent was the first base metal coin issued by a United States branch mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1646042[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
