I bid on this roll of cull Indian heads and won it unfortunately. There was some decent dates including a 1858 Flying Eagle, 1859, 1863, 1869, 1863 112/396 Civil War Token, and others but a lot of junk. Do you think the first coin is 1866? How about the second? 1864 bronze?   Edited by buddy16cat 02/12/2015 05:58 am

I think the first one is 1906.

 1906 on the first one, 186x on the second one. 1868 flying eagle is a nice find though

1906 for the first one. 1864-L for the second one. 1869 is worth something even as a cull, at least there was a mix!

1864-L really? How can you tell when I can barely make out the date? Yes, there was a mix. I thought the 1869 was a good find too but I already have one in my Whitman book.

I would feel dissapointed to have them, even if the price was right. Flip them.

The first is a 1906 and the second is so bad you can only tell it's 186x but 64-L?

The first one looks like a 1906. The second one looks like it's from the 1860s

Quote: 1864-L really? How can you tell when I can barely make out the date? Yes. If that is indeed a 4, which you and I think it is. The 64-L is a lot different from the 64 bronze in multiple ways. Shape of the nose and various feathers will give it away even in the shape that this is in. You don't have to see the L or even the pointed bust to identify it. I enjoy collecting 64-L's for this reason and have way too many of them

I am surprised you were able to tell that in a coin in that condition. Apparently some know more about that variety than others. I can't tell so avoid them. T-Bop if you can't make a comment without triggering the profanity feature, why don't you just skip your comment? No bubble bursted here, just a couple cull coins that were questionable. The rest I know what they are. I can see from the pic the first is actually 1906 and is junk I will get stuck with or list with all the cull Indian heads I have I want to unload. Good thing about junk silver coins is you can always sell them off as junk silver when the value goes up. I paid $20 for a roll, some were good dates where most is just junk.
