Huckleberry4 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/25/2013 9:53 pm We have a jar we put our pocket change in, and as my wife was looking through it today She found an 1897 Indian Head penny. I would say it would grade "good". I can't imagine who would have spent this, putting it back into circulation. I, however, never seem to have the good luck she does. Guess it pays to watch your change. Report this Post to the Staff

YoshiRules Pillar of the Community United States 602 Posts	Posted 09/03/2013 10:28 pm I found a IHC in a roll before. I almost didn't recognize it because it was REALLY beat up. Same date as yours. Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 09/03/2013 11:04 pm Good catch. Always keep looking. Due to the economy, many people with jars, cans, boxes of coins laying around are now spending them. Report this Post to the Staff
RJP Valued Member United States 105 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 02:27 am I like to spend some wheat back cent from time to time. I enjoy it when I find a old coin in change, so I like to return the favor and hope the lucky person enjoys finding and seeing these old coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Steelers72 Pillar of the Community United States 1448 Posts	Posted 09/07/2013 6:22 pm The luckiest I get is the occasional silver Washington quarter every now and then. I've heard stories of people getting Buffalo nickels, mercuries, and IHC but I guess they must be cashiers or something! Report this Post to the Staff
