Indian Cent Errors from my Personal Collection

edited December 8, 2018 9:51PM in U.S. Coin Forum

I haven't posted coins from my personal collection in a while so I thought I'd post some of the more interesting and my favorite pieces of my collection - my Indian cent errors. So let's see what you've got too - post em if you got em! (by the way, I need to acknowledge my coin photographer, Todd of BluCCPhotos, who has been taking amazing pictures of my coins for over 12 years.)




























p.s. All of my personal collection coins are on my website in case you want to see more....

    That's a stunning group of Indian Cent errors you've assembled, Charmy. Thanks for sharing them here with us.

    I have one IHC error. It's a cent dated boldly, "7." The "1", "9" , and "0" are very,very faint, not visible to the naked eye from as little as 2 feet away.

    Holy cow, what a nice collection.

    I would imagine with the amount of cents you deal with, deciding which will go in your personal collection must be very tough.

    Hard to pick a favorite there - but would come down to the 1905 Double Struck with Indent or the 1895 Double Off-Center.
