I went into one of my local coin shops today and I wanted to buy some wheat pennies for grading. he told me the only thing they had was a box full of wheat pennies he has not gone though yet. so I sat there for 1 1/2 hours. looking at penny's I found about 50 that where good date pre 1934. when I was 1/2 way though the stack I noticed a coin that didn't look like a Wheat penny. I looked closer and it was a 1866 Indian head. Though it was banged up I though it was a great find for 3 cents. let me know what you think and what grade/value it might be.
