Sorry for not being online for a while, and posting on finds and other things, but I work in the football equipment business and this is our peak season, Things will settle down in a couple weeks.

Thanks for reading, and as always Hope ya'll got out and swung the coil today. :metaldetector:

That's one pretty Indian! Like to see some closer shots.
Beautiful coin! Congrats

Double click on the two I added later in their own posts.
 

Congrats, Loco! Glad to see you posting again and what a terrific welcome back post you've given us! Absolutely beautiful key date. You've certainly earned it! Congrats again!
 

That's an awesome rescue Loco....one beep at the key time, eh?
 

Wow, an 1877 I.H. IS AN AWESOME FIND.Key date for sure. You will remember always where you found it.
 

Nice hunt,, tie clip is cool but that "Key Date Indian Head Penny" is definitely a top prize find.
 

Wow awesome i want to see a close up of the 77 ih
 

One day searching through my dad's coin collection I came across an Indian Head that I couldn't really make the date out on. After using a magnifying glass I discovered it was a 1877 with a gouge in the last seven. You could make out that it was a seven and not a five. My dad took it to a coin store and the owner still paid out (I believe) ~$400 for it.

Congrats on a find of a lifetime and it's in beautiful condition. A great piece of history you've got there. ����
 

Obvious Banner. Not what I expected to see when I read your title. That is one very difficult coin to find and in great shape. On my bucket list. Great find brother
 

Damn I just looked at the better pics and thing thing is INCREDIBLE. Still a little dirt that can come off to make it even better. Wow that's nice
 

What an outstanding find! Here's another banner vote your way - Good luck!!
 

Congratulations on finding the holy grail of IH pennies. That one had definitely not circulated long before it was lost. Awesome green patina.
 

Nice find Loco on the IHP and the tie piece is really a cool.
