coin rejector Pillar of the Community United States 2877 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 1323 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 2223 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 466 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 44 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

Sharkman Valued Member United States 466 Posts	Posted 06/28/2026 03:26 am Hard to believe someone would bother to fake that rarity in that condition, much less losing it afterwards. Report this Post to the Staff
