@pige, you will see that I have lightly edited your title to remove language that might be construed as promotional. Why don't you tell us what is special about the cent you have posted? Thx.

Most 1892 cents are error coins the reason I mentioned the video that I did was because it covers sales of the 1892 cent errors ms grades and proofs. I like to see variety in this date because their are alot to collect plus I find 1892's in change still so they are out there. Let's see the double dies clipped planchets proofs and MS grades!

I've never heard that most 1892 cents are errors, can you elaborate?

https://www.indianvarieties.com lists 21 varieties for 1892, a normal number nowhere near the highest. 1863 and 1906 each have 76 listings. Is there something special about yours?

I just like it came from NFCU on ebay for 28 dollars and was sold as a proof. It's by far the best condition coin I have and it came in a mint case so I just put it in a card board one without removing it from the mint case. It is in a cello. I think that what the case is called cello. I just have never seen one better and am waiting to see the variety. I have found an 1892 cent in change as well. My guess is it is an ms 70 no marks no toning no scratches still in a mint case could be it's second or third who knows. It appears to have never been touched. My guess is some one was paying for it and stopped paying and I got it for what the credit union was still owed because they are nonprofit.

I don't know anything about the Indian cent varieties, but I am sure someone on here does. I'd be more concerned about the authenticity first.

In any event, varieties are not errors. And trying to think of the last time I found an 1892 in change.

Yes Navy federal was the address on the package I received. The shipping I had to pay for but I forget how much I haven't found many Indian Head cents in change one 1881 p a 1895 p a 1904 p one I found at the top of a roll and asked my dad to coin roll hunt with me so he could find one and he found an 1866 p and the last one I found was an 1892 p. One this doesn't count it was in a register at work and I bought a cheese stick to get it in change it cost me $2.25 but its an extra fine 40 its a 1903 p the others are well worn g4-f12.

Well now I'm suspicious of the whole thing. You're not not going to get an 1892 red proof for $28, let alone from the Navy Federal Credit Union.
