I think I posted the original in the wrong category, so I re-posted it in a new category.

I have only opened about a box and a half total (returning all the junk everyday pennys) and found lots of great finds including two IH cents A 1891 in VG condition and A 1859 in VF condition.
I already had the 1891 but I will still very excited getting it. After getting two weeks of everyday pennys I got a date I do not have, 1859. It was in VF condition It was second to the end of the roll in a red and white machine crimped roll. Here are some pictures.

You're kidding! In that shape, it must have come from someone's collection (perhaps by accident...?) But lucky you, either way! :icon_thumleft:
 

Wow! That's in excellent shape! Congrats! You scored a good one!
