    Wait! We need more info! Where did you find it? Coinstar? Parking lot? Roll searching? Metal detecting? Need more info!

    Showing it's age, but a cool find, anyway! Congrats!

    Nice find.

    One thing to remember about CRHing, you ain't going to get rich. It's very unusual to find an Indian head in change. It may be years before you find another one. However, in that condition, your coin is worth 25-50 cents. Nothing wrong with searching if you enjoy it, just remember that potentially, this could be one of your best find of the year.

    Wish you well on your search and learning about numismatics

    Back in the early 1960"s I looked through bags and bags ( 5000 ) of cents and I think that I only found one or two.
