Here's one I couldn't resist buying just for the fun of it. biggrin.gif

It only cost me €5,00 (inclusive of postage costs) .

The coin itself is (as far as I can tell) Unc with some original lustre. Sadly, getting it out of it's housing would probably ruin it, so it'll stay there.

That's a nice item. The coin appears to be in wonderful shape. I think the price was very good. Enjoy it.

This is a particularly nice piece. Encased Indian cents are a scarce find, and when they are found they are usually well worn from having been kept in pockets etc. I have several encased wheats, I collect local issues only.

So far the only Indian cent related exonumia I have found is one that was made for a local resort in about 1900-1910, it is about 4" in diameter, it is huge.

Nice piece. I'd easily pay $20 for something like that. The case itself is rather unusual.

Myself, I've never seen an encased IHC in less than AU.
