I'm always wary of pig-in-a-poke sales. Even considering free shipping, it's still not great in my opinion.

What is your collecting goal? I don't understand why you would want to buy a random coin in random condition, and not one where you can see the exact coin you will get. Especially at that price.

If you already have your answer, why ask your question in the first place?

Raiden, if you look through that sellers other auctions, you'll see IHCs for about the same price and you know exactly what you're getting.

You will get a common date bronze Indian Head cent, most likely 1901-1908. If actually a VF, I can't see it being a scam, just priced a bit on the high side.
