It's on OK shape but I am not sure how it would be rated. I am going to try to take a picture to post - it will test my photography skills.

First one today. 1907 in good shape. In a string roll, from a 25.00 box.

I have hand sorted a couple of thousand dollars in the last few years and I did find one Indian Head about a year ago..........

But what I think is incredible is the fact that I found an IH laying in the sand on White Sands Beach in Old Lyme CT about 10 yrs ago. I was always a coin collector and me and the wife were walking the dog one day and I looked down and saw a penny. I just thought it was a penny and picked it up but when it hit my wedding ring it sounded different. It was kind of crusted up but you could read the date. Nothing rare but it is in the pile.

Found my 1st wild indian ever.
1901- the liberty is in nicer shape than the pic shows.
I have to give a great big thanks to all the members here, who have been helping my tribe to grow.

After 127,950 pennies I finally got my first Indian, a 1906.

Found my first IHC Oct. 2010. Thought I would post here since the tally for 2010 seems complete.
1905 VG/Fine. Great feeling.

found two today !!!!! a 1902 and a 1908. i have a few hundred dollars of zincs - sitting in buckets - and tonight i was giving some a quick glance (looking for older wheats and IHs the rydale rejected) - and found these two. life is good !!

1880 from a bag,in good shape too.

I got my first Indian Head this year today.

It has been 83 boxes of pennies since the last one I found on August 2010. This one is a 1908, which looks like it was buried for awhile, dark with encrustation. No letters of "LIBERTY" show. I looked hard, but there was no "S" to be found on the reverse.

Found a 1907 last night. Hadn't found one for four months.

Found a 1900 injun tonight. First one in over a year.

Updated for pics.

1905-ag,1902-f from same bag. Got me doing a little dancing :0
