I am NO LONGER a CRH'er , Quit in the early 80's but saturday my wife said she needed to go to our bank to make a deposit. I was feeling kind of board so I told her to bring back just 2 rolls of Lincoln's so I can pass some time and cure my boredom . she brought back the 2 rolls and I opened them yesterday ; ( DRUM ROLL ) *** The first roll I opened spilled out a 1903 IHC , I was dumb struck because this is the only IHC I ever found in a roll of Lincolns. Sorry unable to supply photos on CCF, but if you want conformation just ask edweather. |

It's how the addiction begins... Next time it'll be 4 rolls, than an occasional box, then a weekly box, then 10 boxes a pick up. Just kidding.. Sort of.
Nice find!! Glad it found a good home

Excellent find!  I have never found a IHC in a roll. Best I could do is a Barber dime that was minted two years after the IHC was retired. |

They are out there - as noted in the past, I spend IHC culls whenerer I can, probably at least a hundred a year. I have a virtually inexhaustible supply. |

Well seeing this post is depressing, my best find in CRH was a 1927 LWC. Great find! |

I dump dozens of IH's at times, mostly ones I've dirtfished, hoping to spur collectors. Maybe you found one?
