Found this Indian about six inches deep in a park me and my father has been hitting all summer and fall. The park never fails. Most of the copper comes out looking pretty decent. This was found with the EXPII.

very nice, ILLINOISDOUG ! WTG! great shape on that IH!
 
Definetly at least an EF. Worth at least $150. You should have it checked by an expert, there's a few repunched date varieties for this year
 
I've seen some super nice Indians in the mid-60's come out like that. The last two(1866, 1867) both came out looking like crap. Gotta love those semi-key dates looking that sweet!! Congrats!
 
Super find, great shape too!
 
WOW! Not just a full LIBERTY but a SHARP full LIBERTY!!!! Very nice indeed!
 
That is a beauty Doug
 
That's definitely a beauty !!!!!!! once in a while I will find one in good shape!!!
 
I just wish I could find a Wheat in that condition. . . nice!
 
Wow. Now that's a keeper. ;D At least a semi-key date and in that condition - Sweet.

Nice IH! HH, Mike
 
:o OHHH..that's a purdy one! 8)

;)
 
I also have an 1867 that came out of the ground in similar condition, probably AU grade, without any corrosion. Sorry, no pic on hand, but it was dug out of wet, muddy soil in a ditch, and by all rights, it should have been a small green chunk of corrosion after 150 years. I also have an 1864 bronze and an 1869 which are almost as nice. I wonder why the cents from these dates apparently resist corrosion better than those minted in later years?
