$400.00 coin worth ?

[Hunter1805]

I am blessed with finding 3 1870 Indian head cents at an old RR camp. This one is the best of the three. If this coin was not dug it would easily be a $400.00 coin. Now the value is ? Any ideas on removing the green color on the coin. I posted this coin for the coin collectors. Enjoy the day .. Jim

i wouldnt clean it either. there is no need to. the only time i clean any coin is only if i cant id it without cleaning it. all of the features and detail are visable on that one. the green patena is part of the coins character.

Beutiful! Are the other two just as green? All three the same date is interesting, maybe the rest of the roll is nearby!

I'm with AK... clean it... use 40 grit sand paper on a belt sander... that green will come right off! Just watch your fingers!!!

Just kidding! Great find! That is a beautiful coin!
