Today I was updating a few photos and this coin was one of them. This was the first high grade IHC I ever purchased and really the coin that inspired me to start this set.   |

Today's coin is a Copper Nickel from 1864. In 1864 the US mint released 3 different versions of the Indian Head cent. The coin was released in Copper Nickel, Bronze and Bronze with an L for Longacre the designer of the coin. With this one and the one I have on hold I am down to 15 more coins.   |

I have already followed your 7070 set, you have succeeded there. You're not far behind here either.You're moving pretty fast. You have great coins. Congratulations . I'm still looking for a Flying Eagle and IHC for my set of types. Flying Eagle is not so easy to find at a good price. |

Thanks Slerk! I have extra IHC but just checked and I can't mail to Russia. Once the situation gets better message me and I'll send you an IHC. |

Today's picture is not a coin, that's coming tomorrow  but it is something that every collector needs. Yep a guide to just IHC and Flying Eagles.  |

I agree! My library continues to grow as I get interested in other areas of collecting and strive to learn more about the coins/currency already in my collection. Being an educated collector is very important!

Being an educated collector is very important! I originally tried you tube but none of my coins were found in a parking lot or runned over so I was worried. That's why I got the book.  |

For any collector of Indian Head cents and/or Flying Eagle cents, this book is an absolute MUST! It's written by Rick Snow, unquestionably the worlds foremost authority on these coins! Learn the important insights. He shares it all! Steve A day without fine wine and working on your coin collection is like a day without sunshine!

Since I got the book, I can now get the coins. Today's coin is an 1867 Indian Head cent. My local dealer held this one for me for 2 weeks.   |

I just realized that I never posted the first 3 coins I had in this set. I recently posted the first coin I ever got for the slabbed IHC set about a week ago. Here is another that needs its own entry.   |
