is a 1907 penny a good find,

Finding any Indian Head cent in circulation is a very unusual event. They were effectively gone from circulation before 1960 (and in most areas of the country were gone well before that). As stated earlier, value will depend on grade.

A coin like that was probably stolen from someone's coin collection. Perhaps it was a kid looking for some spending money in his dad's coin collection.

Perhaps someone just dumped an old jar of coins in a coin star. It does not have to be stolen. Jeez

It surprises me how rare they are in circulation. You would think they would pass under the radar in commerce more often than they do.

Not really surprising how scarce they are.
They haven't been minted for over a hundred years.
If they are to show up in circulation, how would they get there?
Stolen/accidentally spent/Coinstar dump "oops" are really the only way they could show up.
Just think how scarce wheats are today.

When I first started collecting in the late 60s, even then, it was virtually unheard of to find one circulating.
And I looked through lots of change.
I didn't find one in circulation until a few years ago.
I don't have any statistics to back this up, but I would be surprised if there was an average of more than one Indian Cent per million cents in circulation.

I started collecting in 1961. I don't think that I ever found one and I looked through $50 bags many times.

Wow... a circulation find IHC.... When I was a kid with a paper route (late 40's, early 50's) they showed up in change...not every day, but every month or so.... enough so I had a small cache of them at one time. Of course silver dimes, quarters and halves were standard fare as well. (Where is the emoji with the gray beard ) Cheers, RickO
