Need more cleaning on these Indian head cents

[BigTony]

I was able to hear deep quiet tones and landed four Indian head cents. One buffalo nickel that is top right of the photo.

I love finding Indian Heads. 4 in one day is awesome.

Have you tried Ande’s Crayons?

Thank you. So far it looks like two are 1864, two are 1870 and 1883. Still need more cleaning to make certain those are correct

No I haven’t use those. I been using a brass wire brush

I cleaned them up and am able to see most of the dates, there are two 1864’s, one is 1870, one is 1883.

Eraser off a pencil it's the best it doesn't leave no chemical residue

Nice! The 1870 is a rarer mintage. Do you know if you have the bold N or shallow N variety? Please post back a picture of your results - especially the reverse for the 1870.

Nice finds Tony! I usually get a few each year. Most of mine come from farm fields and are so bad I just toss them into a pile with wheats and nickels..
