To flatten a penny coin- wrap it in a cloth or napkin. Put it flat on a concrete floor and gently tap with a hammer. If it's not too bent to start with you'll never know it has been straightened. |

just found a really worn Indian head penny. the date is a bit hard to determine. baically the bottom of the date is worn away. The best guess would be 1874. |

Found another Indian. It was an 1882. Pretty tough shape but you can easily read the date. It always amazes me every time I find one of these. I wonder how long it has been in circulation. |

Congratulations, it is rare to find one after months of searching it is kind of like winning the lottery when you find two in one day. I thought I was doing good finding two in one week and I went through 140,000 pennies last week. |

Excellent!
I'm going to fly to Austin and hit up all the Wells Fargo branches, since I only find an IH every 100 boxes or so.
We are all dying to see the pictures!

Did your camera not come with some sort of chord that you insert into a USB port and then upload, or is it download, the pictures that way?
You could always go to someplace that does photos on the spot, like a drugstore or a supercenter type store. Their system usually has a spot for the media stick. Then just have the photos you want transferred onto a CD, pay the small cost, then stick the CD into your computer.
Or, borrow a friend's computer that you could download the pictures onto and then email yourself the picture(s) that you want to post to a hosting site.
My problem that I have encountered too often is lack of high speed once I got past the initial fear of trying to post to a hosting site. Thankfully many members on here were very patient and helpful when I requested assistance.
Hope at least one of these suggestions will do the trick for you.

In my earlier post I said I found another 1907 Indian head. I thought I posted one earlier in the week but I see I didn't so put me down for two 1907's for this week. |
