1880 IHC Find

As posted in another thread of mine, here are pictures of a 1880 IHC find. It is well worn but still a cool find in my eyes.

Cool find!! Was it in a bank wrapped roll or some other place?

Definitely a nice find anytime you pull an IH.
Congrats.

This was from a $50 bag purchased from my local bank. The bank has a coin counting machine available to its customers. They accumulate the proceeds and then ultimately send the bag to The Fed. I suspect this IHC was from a local collection since I scored 118 wheat pennies (including 42 steelies), 4 proof strike Memorials, and countless 2009 Bicentennials.

Congrats on the IHC find! Sounds like you have a nice thing going with your bank! Lots of nice finds in that $50 bag!

118 wheats in a $50 bag is very impressive!! I'll bet there are some doubled dies in those 2009 Bicentennials!! Check those steelies for the 43-D/D. Look forward to what you get in the next bag!! Larry

Yes the personnel at the bank are great. Not to offend big city life but this is a perk of living in small town USA.

Congrats on all your finds!! I've yet to pull an IHC from the wild.

Nice find... May be worn but you can still see the date and other details!!!
