Message:: [QUOTE="TheSilverpicker, post: 1490996, member: 39201"]Hi everybody, this is my first post, so i hope that I am posting with proper etiquette (correct section, etc). Anyway, I am relatively new to coin collecting as well. I started buying gold and silver coins as bullion, about a year ago, but found myself becoming interested in the numismatic coins as well. Now, here I am, a year later and Im a coin hound! Here's the coin in question:I have an 1886 Indian Head penny in pretty good shape. The indian's face is worn, but the words are not. The only worn parts of the words are the S from the end of "United States" and the A of America. It is most pronounced, however on the 2nd 8 of 1886. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think. Is it an error coin? If so, were there a lot of error coins like this that exist, or is this rare? And finally, the typical question...how much do you think it's worth. Thanks a lot![ATTACH]189873.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]189874.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
