eedipoLuap73 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-17-2004, 10:08 AM

I recently won a coin at the C.A.S.H bash in CT. its a 186? indian head that is in almost perfet condition, It looks like a brand new penny but the last number looks real funny it looks like a 2 but all of the 1862 indians I can find online shows deep definition of the 2. It looks like its filled in or something. Is there a error or varient of this coin? I know there is something up with this coin but I cant find anything on it. I wish I could post a pic of it but I dont have a digital cam.

VERY POSSIBLE THAT IT COULD BE COUNTERFEIT. GO OVER THE THE MAIN FORUM PAGE AND CLICK ON COIN APPRIAISALS AND SEE IF GREG CAN HELP IN THIS MATTER. KIND OF HARD TO TELL WITHOUT A PHOTO. DO YOU HAVE A SCANNER THAT YOU COULD POSSIBLY USE TO SEND A PHOTO?.....PAPPY :D :D :D

just checked the official red book and no mention of any error coins in that date...values start at $8 for g-4.....check your local bookstore for a copy of the red book
