1896 -- Looks to be VG/F under all the grime. NFS box also yielded 12 wheats, 2 dimes, 2 Canadian CU, and 1 Canadian Zn. Total CU was 22%.
It took me over 47,000 pennies of hand-sorting to find first IH.

Wow Bluegill, that is an impressive looking group of foriegn 'pennies'.
I've found a couple of IH's ... have searched lots of penny rolls, but don't know the total amount. Oneof the IH's was in really nice condition and one (an 1888) is only 'fair' .
I've just recently found my second George V Canadian cent. The first was a 1934 and the last was a 1933, both in nice condition.
Still waiting on finding a 'silver' dime or a dime of any kind.
