2 Weeks of Interesting Finds (2 IHs and a Proof Dime)

In two weeks time I found 2 Indian Heads, a BEAUTIFUL 1980 proof dime, a 1/12 Anna from India, and a 1948 George VI. The 1905 IH is very beat up, but the 1896 IH is in fair condition and happens to be my first 1800's find. The dime was in a box and I couldn't believe its condition. I thought the 1/12 Anna was interesting, I've never seen one before and the date makes it even more interesting. Lastly, the George VI is the first old Canadian I've kept. I recently started keeping the Canadian I've found since they will soon be a thing of the past. Hope you enjoyed and HH.

Oh yes, very nice!
To sound like a coin nerd, is the proof dime silver?

Unfortunately, the dime is a clad proof.

Very nice finds, 2 IHP's as well as a proof dime and a 1/12 anna from india... I've never found one of those before... this may be a dumb question, but was the 1/12 anna found in a cent box or a dime box? I have a few in my personal collection but can't recall if it is smaller than a cent or not.

any proof dime made netween 1965-1991 are ALL copper-nickel, it is after 1992 when silver proof sets began to be made as well as the normal copper-nickel proof sets :-)

The 1/12 Anna was found in a MWR in a dime box.

The 1/12 anna is worth 50 cents, and the Canadian cent is worth 25 cents.
