Recently I begun collecting US Coins. However several years earlier I bought the Indian Head Coins because these are the most beautiful coins ever for me.

I think US Collectors love these coins too?

    Great series, fairly easy to collect except a few pricey dates. Just do lots of reading or pick up a couple publications like this. Look at lots of examples both real and counterfeit. If you know who you're dealing with this shouldn't be a major obstacle - while not as prevalent as some suggest there are fakes... good counterfeits... out there.

    Until recently I had a date set of the $2.50. I'm now in the process of building another set. They are great little coins that won't break the bank to assemble.

    Wow! on the $10 sandblast proof. Somehow I had missed that one, I didn't know they even existed.

    I've been collecting $10 Indians for 20 years now, I have a lot of MS-63's and a few MS-66's, the semi key and key dates are for the most part AU-58's. I haven't bought any for the last 6 months though, they are just too expensive now

    I've always loved the Indian Eagle design even though Lady Liberty looks more Scandinavian than Native American. Here's my Indian Eagle "typeset"
