Wasn't even roll hunting, just cracked this open for the drawer at work: Looks like a dateless, a 1930, and a 1919:    |

looks like they do not meet someone's expectations, so they dumped them.

I use the self-checkout at the store and once in awhile I will insert both low grade Indian cents & "V" Liberty nickels... Maybe it will spark interest for a future collector... |

the population of CRHers is pretty small... the percentage of CRHers that release indians and buffs intentionally, for whatever reason, is also small. I see no reason to think these were dumped by someone who didn't want them. Only 1 is dateless anyway. again great find, and nice pics too by the way Broken Coin, how many Indian cents and V nickels do you think you have released? Id rather just give them to a co-workers kid to try to spark their interest. |

I try to spend cull IHC whenever I can (I have many rolls). Probably have given out 4-5 hundred over the past 10 years.  |

I honestly don't know how many low grade obsolete coins I spent since the mid 1980's as there value wasn't much more then face..
In this time period I had access to a metal Lathe and made Dozens of 2 denomination coins with Nickle fronts & Cent backs, Cent fronts with Dime backs.. The Obverse would have the reverse side cut out, then the Reverse side would have half the coin Lathe removed & both pieces would fit together..
All had been made with Early 1900's Obsolete Coinage & Polished (1900-1945)...
I gave them to my Daughters (not knowing they would give them away or spend them)...
I also released high grade Silver Certificates & Red Seal U.S. Notes in circulation as dealers would pay only 10% above face back then for AU & UNC Notes...
I attended a Northern NJ Coin Show where one attendee had a $500 Note with a small ink mark and the most Dealers offered was $510--- I gave him $525 for the note, and after the excitement wore off, I broke evenwhen selling it...
Tha above was the 1980's & I didn't get involved in Errors until the 1990's...

Yeah I don't care about condition, when I find old coin from circulation I save them.... If nothing else, hopefully the kids and grandkids will appreciate them!

Is the mintmark worn off?

Yes, it's either worn off or it's a PHI coin.... you think the dateless is a 1914? I can't pick that up at all. What are you seeing?
