The man I bought from got these coins from his dad. His dad ran a gas station in the 40/50/60s. He had a can he put the coins in and would dump into a barrel when full. After retiring he started going through them. He passed a couple of years ago. His son needed money for repairs on his place. I went and saw the collection and gave him his asking price. Like we all know it was well below actual value.

I would send the key dates in for authentication to a TPG. ANACS would be the cheapest.

The key dates for Indian cents are 1877 & 1909-S.
The key dates for Lincoln's are 1909-S vdb, 1914-D, 1931-S.
These coins are very often counterfeited

I've recently been bitten by the upgrading bug in my Lincoln Cent collection. Just the inexpensive common ones. There were at least a dozen in my album that were nearly unreadable. Been there since I was a kid but I figured it was time to fill those holes with something decent.

I think you'd have some fun upgrading some of those and making it your own.
Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection:

An impressive collection, but many of the keys look worn or cleaned. Could you show us close-ups of the 1869, 1871, 1877 and 1909-S coins please.

Kind of a funny lot that we are.

Gent completed Lincoln AND Indian Head sets for very little money, even if he paid 10 cents per, the OP done rather well!

Congrats! Thank you for sharing.
