coin rejector Pillar of the Community United States 2836 Posts	Posted 05/12/2026 6:30 pm What an amazing find, congrats to the lucky detectorist. Report this Post to the Staff
thecoinguy1964 Pillar of the Community United States 1307 Posts	Posted 05/12/2026 7:23 pm You want to talk about a needle in a haystack. Finding a IHC is one thing, but to find the rarest one, is the find of a lifetime. What state was the coin found in? Edited by thecoinguy1964 05/13/2026 07:54 am Report this Post to the Staff

jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2200 Posts	Posted 05/12/2026 8:23 pm So it was found metal detecting, but it's not your coin? Then how do you know about it? Report this Post to the Staff
Sharkman Valued Member United States 461 Posts	Posted 05/13/2026 5:57 pm Is it too corroded or low grade to justify TPG restoration? Either way, given how you found it I would proudly let it fill the 1877 spot in an IHC collection. Congrats!!! Report this Post to the Staff
Spanky59 New Member United States 40 Posts	Posted 06/03/2026 2:46 pm Found IHC metal detecting about 2 years ago. Think it was a 1894 but was sure hoping it was a 77 when I turned it over. Super nice find. Report this Post to the Staff
