Seller’s Description:
DETAILS: 1896 Indian Head Cent Penny Coin IMAGES: The images used for this listing are stock photos from our inventory. Your purchase is guaranteed to match the quality of the product shown. COLLECTOR’S NOTE: Struck from 1859-1864, copper-nickel Indian Head cents depict Liberty with an Indian headdress and not an actual Native American. The reverse of first-year coins featured a laurel wreath, which changed in 1860 to an oak wreath and small shield. A slightly sharper Indian portrait was created near the end of 1864 and included designer James B. Longacre’s initial L on the lower ribbon behind the neck. Indian Heads were struck in bronze through the end of the series in 1909.
