First, let me say that this is an excellent dug Indian head penny!
Has a green tint with minor corrosion. grading XF-40 with AU details.

This coin should bring you an easy $1200 to$1500 with no problem.

This was TJ's first find with his Spectrum XLT!
Found at an old farm house.

Thank you TJ for posting it here

Whoa!! GREAT find there TJ.

Congrats and a tip of the old hat to you. Many of us have been searching for one of those for decades and are still looking.

Well done,

Hi Poco


That is a nice indian !! but it is not possible to grade a coin with only one of the three views, the obverse detail is indeed nice ,,How was the coin cleaned ? if it was abrasively cleaned a value adjustment of 3 to five grades will be made on the coin when sold,, which means that a XF coin will net grade cleaned at about VG-8 making your coins approximate value to be between 5 and 700.00.
