[WileE]

1906 from a Brinksmanship box. They are still out there!

[John Reich]

1908 in a cwr. Another penny sorting milestone to cross off the list!

[TwoAndAHalfCents]

1901

First one in a long time. This one is a nice one too. Easily VF condition.

I was doing a zinc dump at the credit union and this beauty was rejected. I did not realize it was an Indian at first. Closer examination revealed 1871 !!
Rejected by the Ryedale and the credit union, I guess I will keep it.

[narragansett]

1988-1

[TXSTARFIRE]

1988?

[Country]

I'm assuming 1888 for this one. Correct?

[TwoAndAHalfCents]

1884

[wheeler_dealer]

1904 first Indian in quite awhile.

[WileE]

1906 with a hole in her headdress. Jewelry anyone?

Question: Would this thread count Indians that were mixed in with Canadian cents in bulk buys? So far this year, I have found five Indians in lots of Canadian cents that I buy every week from my LCS, I have also found a mix of other foreign stuff in there (farthings, starfish cents etc). I guess they don't look too hard at individual coins in these buys. The Indians I "found" were 1902, 1903x2, and 1905x2. Not the same as finding one in a roll, but still unexpected. So, do these count?

[outofsort]

1884, my new record for the oldest coin find!

This is kind of like a purchased IH brave. To be fair, I think only the ones found in change or searched from bank CWRs, boxes, or bags should count. Sorry...

However, even though I won't count them, post your finds anyway. Looks like your LCS was sprucing up the Canadian lot a bit.
