Davest Valued Member United States 325 Posts	Posted 02/15/2009 11:01 am I inherited a small box of Indian Head cents from 1884 to 1909. They're not in any kind of flips and grade from Good to Very Fine. Should I put them all into 2x2s or just the better graded ones? Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16679 Posts	Posted 02/15/2009 11:06 am Keys are 1877,1909-S. Better dates are 1867,68,69,70,71,72. I would put the "better" ones in 2X2's. The others, like Wheats I have, I'd just put in a plastic cent container and store. swcoin.ecrater.com Edited by vermontensium 02/15/2009 11:06 am Report this Post to the Staff
sfwusc Pillar of the Community United States 615 Posts	Posted 02/15/2009 5:34 pm I can get flips for about 3 cents each, so I would put them in flips if I planned on keeping them, then 2x2 clear pages in a 3 ring binder. I don't every plan on attempting the IHC series, so no need to buy a dansco. I do have an old whitman that I have put some extras in, but they were in rough shape. -SWUSC Report this Post to the Staff

It's fun to try to fill the entire album. Don't worry about the grades. That's for those with money that think of nothing but value, money, value, money. Make it a fun thing to do. It's a hobby so enjoy it. Ask friends, neighbors and/or relatives if they have any of those. Some day in the future you can worry about improving those coins if you want.
