The 1864 Indian Cent is a significant collectible coin in the United States, known for its distinctive design featuring a Native American headdress on the obverse and the denomination surrounded by a laurel wreath on the reverse. Minted at the Philadelphia Mint, this coin marked a pivotal year in the Indian Head series, transitioning from the original bronze composition to a bronze alloy with a higher copper content. The 1864 Indian Cent is particularly sought after by collectors due to its historical context and relatively limited mintage compared to other years in the series.
