I showed this coin off at work just after the newspaper article ran, and ended up striking up a conversation with a nice lady who is now my wife.
So as you can imagine, the sentimental value of this coin far outweighs even its historical/archaeological significance, let alone its modest monetary value.

So you found a coin, and it's been taking your money ever since... hmmm...

That one is my favorite because of it's history. I bought it as an NGC MS64RB.
Sent for cross with a minimum grade of MS63RB - DNC.
Cracked out, submitted raw - Bodybag, altered surfaces.
Resubmitted - MS65BN, pop 1/0.

MikeJessie1, if you bought this coin and the 1911 from eBay seller "Numiscent" (which, from the look of the photos, it appears you did), you may want to save your grading fees and return the coins if you can. This seller is notorious for whizzing and/or re-coloring Lincolns, and he will not take returns after your coins get "bodybagged" by PCGS.
A few months back, a forum member had 4 coins purchased from "numiscent" get bodybagged: Link
Hopefully you can get your money back or cut your losses from the two coins you purchased.
And in the spirit of the season, a little Red to go with the Green

Mike Jessie - In the world of grading your 1911 and your 1909 are known as "pumpkins".A word to the wise is that if looks to good to be true ..........then it probably is
Lee G - Your 1882 Indian cent has been ammoniated.Another word is burnt.I don't care if its in a holder or not.I would return it to PCGS under their guarantee
Perhaps someone can e mail Chuck at Coppercoins.com and he can post some superb photos of Red copper
Numismatist (Ron) I love your red and green coins especially the proof 1903 cent
