upstate Pillar of the Community United States 3283 Posts	Posted 07/20/2010 8:24 pm Looks like a sweet 1908 Indian Head penny in fine or better condition and a 1955s slightly dinged up but otherwise uncirculated condition. How come I never find anything? Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/22/2010 4:09 pm The details are the 1908 Cent has a mintage of 32,326,367, approximately. It would sell for about $5 to $10 in that grade. Although a rather common coin, still almost all Indian Head cents are somewhat valuable. The 55S again too is rather a common coin with about 44,610,000 minted. In AU (Almost Uncirculated or About Uncirculated) it would sell for less than one dollar. However, since you found them and spent nothing for them, great find. Report this Post to the Staff
