Ghawk Valued Member United States 74 Posts	Posted 08/16/2020 3:21 pm Can you believe I got this back today in change from a purchase? Granted in terrible shape, but a 1872 nonetheless. Last year I received the oldest cent I've ever gotten back, a 1918 Wheat penny in fair shape and I was super excited to get that. But this is the first time I ever received an Indian Head in change and happens to be a key date. Bold or shallow N? Report this Post to the Staff

ziggy29 Valued Member United States 157 Posts	Posted 08/17/2020 10:53 pm Holy smokes. I don't know what is more unusual -- that someone would spend it, that a cashier would take it, or that a cashier wouldn't take a penny out of his/her own pocket to replace it in the till! I collect XF/AU Indians, but I love these old workhorses because they have seen so much history! Report this Post to the Staff
