I just love this 1883 Snow 1 variety with the misplaced digit in the pearls. Here are two examples - one is mine and the other one I just sold. But there are some other really dramatic Indian cent varieties as well, so let's see your favorites!

This one is in my personal collection:

    You certainly have the nicest copper around here, and the largest monitor. image

    This 1872 is also a very nice coin, with "1" in the neck , This bad boy also has a die polish mark that makes what looks like a pin thru the ear.

    I see an Eagle Eye sticker. Is that Rick's version of a CAC sticker or is it just an inventory indentifier? I think having a Rick Snow stamp of approval would be GREAT for any IHC!

    Yes, Rick has been Photo Sealing Indian cents for many years. You get a buy back guarantee, the little eagle sticker on the coin, plus a laminated and signed photo of the coin with the sticker on it. Most Indian cent collectors really value that little seal - and the guarantee that goes along with it!

    That's a really cool S-11 1872. I like the die lines. I also have an 1872 Snow variety, not as neat as yours, but it's the S-1 where the 7 and 2 are boldly repunched (even though the holder wrongly says 1872/1--2).

    Very nice coin, Sean - I love that overdate too - it's so off kilter, like the guy was pretty drunk when he punched it! I just got mine not too long ago from Rick.
