junior e Pillar of the Community United States 931 Posts	Posted 06/06/2011 5:22 pm I got a 1901 IHC in change a few years back. The kid at the counter said "Man, that's a weird looking penny." I inlaid it into a wooden box that I made. Report this Post to the Staff
Freedom Pillar of the Community United States 526 Posts	Posted 06/07/2011 07:04 am The Buff was my fathers favorite coin. He had shoeboxes full of them (Literally). We went on vacation and came home to a vandalized house.... They took both shoeboxes full of Buff's. At that time in my life I didn't realize what had occured with the coins. They started showing up around our small town and eventually the person was caught and prosecuted (Friend from HS - Some Friend). I only wish that I could have gone through them now know what I know now. RIP Dad Report this Post to the Staff
