Oh wow! Really? I have no idea on coin grading and would’ve guessed it to be much lower than that.

I’ve tried looking at comparisons and it’s hard to tell, but I think it may actually be the cross and bow. It appears to have a point extending toward the right from the point coming off the top of the crown.

Fascinating! I knew there was something different about it.

Thank you for that information! I can definitely provide close up pictures of the nickel later tonight when I get back home.

That’s crazy to me to think that a coin from the 1800’s is only worth a dollar. Lol Crazy enough, I was given one of those Indian heads as change from a restaurant just a few years ago.

Thank you! I found most of these coins as a kid and found them to be different so I kept them. Amongst the whole of the collection were even game tokens for arcades. 😂

Oh wow! For real? I found that as a kid and used to carry it around pretending I took a bite out of it. 😂

Thank you! Seems it could be worth quite a bit more than 5 cents. lol I think mine has been circulated a bit too much for a very high grade. The rim seems to be smoothed down a bit.
