8 June 2026: 1893 Indian Head Cent

 






After the flurry of shipment of coins, I felt that I needed to stop and take a break before I lost control and went broke. I did not quite go into panic mode but rather "caution" mode for lack of a better term. 

I gave it a rest. I admired and was grateful for what I did have, and yet I knew I would continue on, I just did not know when. I hoped that it would take some time before I went back into it. 

Well, I don't think that it waited long enough. 

A few days later after the last purchase online, I spotted something that was available. An Indian Head Cent that was from an earlier year than what I had in the collection. And the price was smaller than what I had paid for the other cents. 

The cent came from a seller I had previous bought from before and I figured I would stick my head out and show myself into buying another item from their online store. 

Not only that, but I bought the first international coin that I never heard of, and it was in amazing condition for being as old as it was. But that blog post is coming up soon after this one.

Therefore, I bought two at the same time. Although truthfully, it was still two separate transactions, which was a dumb move on my part.  

I got the Indian Head cent, but not the international coin. I reached out to the seller and was told to wait. Thankfully that is what I did as I would eventually receive both items from the one seller. It just should have come on the same day but it was two days apart in one arriving after the first. 

I will work on having more patience. Thankfully I didn't chew out the seller or anything.
