Item Description

1898 Indian Head One Cent - Next year, a 130 year old coin
Mint - Philadelphia
Condition (non grading service rating) - Very Fine to extremely fine

The designer of the Indian Head penny, James B. Longacre, served as Chief Engraver of the United States Mint from 1844 until his death in 1869. Interestingly, 1906 pennies don’t actually feature an “Indian” on the obverse at all. Rather, it’s a depiction of Miss Liberty, as modeled by Longacre’s 12-year-old daughter, Sarah.
