Abit of advise needed . INCUSE INDIAN

[Kiwi.d]

Hey all,

I have a 1929 INCUSE Indian that seems odd.

I’m not able to upload a video so I’ve taken 3 pics of the front, side and back of the round.

As I rotate the round - the opposite face is upside down?

I’ve watched videos on YouTube and nothing is like this.

Thoughts?

It's a modern round!

Sorry what do you mean by “modern round”?

 

[Aurora et luna]

It was minted recently!
Not in 1929
Also not legal tender

It's a 1oz silver round

Ok so the older rounds are orientated the same way and the new are not?

As the other guys have said, you have the Golden State Mint version which is a modern homage to the original and made of Silver

Whereas a genuine 1929 Indian Head is Gold

US coins have inverted faces. Rotate them on a horizontal axis to see the correct orientation.

As mentioned, that's a modern silver round, based on a historical $2.50 & $5 gold coin design.

To make a long story short, it’s worth spot plus whatever premium a buyer is prepared to pay.
It’s not in any way a rare find etc.
