Wow, a Velveeta box! Was it in good condition? My family used them and to me, they're special. Oh yeah, amazing coins too!

This weekend turned out to be a good opportunity to "spend some time with Dad."
You honour him by sharing your discoveries. I feel very privileged to be a part of this. Thank you.

I can tell you the 1959 RedBook lists the 09S Indian in good as $29.00

Bummer about that gouge in his head...but clearly another pretty sweet find.


Oh no Moe, that's not a bad coin at all, I would just pretend that it is the quill pen behind his ear variety that he wrote the Gettysburg Address with.

Probably self-serving...but figured I'd bump this to share it again. :)

Thanks for "Reshareing" I can only hope that my son or grand children will feel the same thing when they search my collection. I have a couple "Good digs" in my collection

I agree, nothing wrong with keeping this one going near the top. This is, after all, a family forum.

Well...that's just a bit of a disappointment.

I sent the 2nd 1909-S Indian in to PCGS for grading under last quarter's special. Just saw online that they've labeled it as "Questionable Authenticity"...honestly I'd never even considered that...or closely examined the mintmark.
