    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.

    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.

    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.
