good job thats one sweet IH ---in very nice shape too I might add --well worth the buck you spent on it---I bet you wish it could "talk" and tell you how it got there--- by the way maybe you have some ideal of where the american service men hurt during the 1943 papua new guiena fighting recovered at in your country? my father in law made a rather lovely bracelet from six 1943 three pence (silver) pieces and a larger silver coin (unknown?) from your country and since he has been dead many years now and my 90 year old mother in law can't seem to "remember" where he was at in your country when he made it--- I'm just trying to fill in the blanks on this "interesting item"--- thanks Ivan

According to my 2007 Blue Book, That 1870 indian, in F-VF, has a dealer buy of around $85-$135 (US). I say that you got one heck of a deal for .86 cents LOL
