09-s Indian Head

[skierbob]

Just came from a coin show at Fort Washington, PA where I finally completed my Indian Head Cent collection. I had found the whole set with a metal detector, except for the 08-s and 09-s. The 69 over 68 or 69, whichever, I'm not going to get. Anyway, I picked up an 08-s a few months ago and I just picked up the 09-s today. I paid for it with money I got from selling a few of my finds. So, I like to think that I actually traded for it.

LOL Bob, congrats, but the 09-s you bought looks like a ground found, so at least that makes it closer to a true ground found collection, just not all by you! :P

Don,

The color is off in the picture. The coin is really brown and there's no evidence that it came out of the ground. You see, the best setting on my camera for close-ups has a blue tint to it. Although I get pretty good close-ups, it's difficult sometimes to get the true color of the coin. You'll see in some of my pictures that the background is blue when it should be white.
