I did an image search on "Liberty" out of curiosity since the indian head is actually "Liberty" or "Lady Liberty" in a head dress.

Here is one of the pictures:

I've got a half penny from the netherlands dated 1814, some just before Civil War times and nickles, an 1884 silver dollar (mom bought it in China for about $0.50 at a flea market a couple years ago) and a bunch of coins from all over europe from right after WWI ended.

Hard to find values/collectors of other-than-american coins tho...

The 1884 from china has about a 98% chance of being counterfeit - doesn't really matter - it is a common date worth only melt.

US is pretty much the only country that collects coins en masse. No surprise there, it is a disposable income hobby!

I used to wonder whose pockets these old puppies have been in myself. Yep, I would like to hear their stories....
