Wow, that's just amazing! DEFINITELY not a common error, I've never seen a double struck IHC before. Date looks like 1897. Probably worth a lot of money if it's real!

Message from Mike Diamond: Quote: Hi Coop. I see a double strike with an indent on the second strike. The coin also rotated between strikes. Mike So it is a keeper and a pricey one at that.

That's really sweet to hear#129303;! Awsome I have to be honest it seriously brought tears to my eyes all these years I've said I thought it might be special(to me) & maybe not real common & might even be worth something? Are we talking like a couple hundred dollars or maybe close to $500? Thank you much appreciated, Tammysue

Wild guess? If certified by NGC or PCGS, $500 to $1500 taking a quick look at ebay sales. To get top money, you need to send it off to be certified.

I said you had something special, now if you get it graded and slabbed as that error I'm thinking more than $1500 in the right auction....good luck, keep us posted

I am working  on getting it sent off to NGC. I will let ya'll know what I find out for sure!! I'm excited to hear what they say should be interesting? I have a few more coins I want to put on here but 1 I'm not sure  which forum  to put it on cause I'm not 100% sure what it is? But supposedly it came out from 1 of the sunken ships off Florida(where I'm from), any advice which forum? Thank You, Tammysue

Wonderfulness, a belated discovery after holding on to it this long and getting free expert opinions here on forum. This is a cool example, a small but active niche group will have high interest in the coin. If your a fellow coin rebel then how about considering ANACS? They will slab that baby up with some series nouns verbs and adjectives fast and cheap. If you do decide to sell then cross over the railroad tracks uptown to PCGS. ANACS the working mans friend. As for the coin  woohoo that baby's a peach!

Tammy I would contact Rick Snow, as to a value, he is not only the premiere Indian cent expert but he also is a market maker and dealer. His website has all his contact info on it. He is a longtime friend of mine and a fair guy to deal with in the coin business. He has handled many of the top Indian cent varieties known. https://www.indiancent.com/Another good Indian cent expert his his protege Charmy Harker another very knowledgeable dealer in Indian cents and another friend of mine. https://thepennylady.com/Last but not least is Jon Sullivan an noted top error dealer in earlier US coinage like this. https://www.sullivannumismatics.com/Hope some of these contacts help out, you have a neat and tough error, don't take the first offer, shop it around to be sure you maximize your profit gain and don't leave too much money on the table. GOOD LUCK!
