The 1866 Indian Head Cent is a notable collectible coin from the United States, part of the Indian Head series minted from 1859 to 1909. The design, created by engraver James B. Longacre, features a representation of Lady Liberty wearing a Native American headdress on the obverse and a wreath on the reverse. The 1866 issue is particularly interesting as it marks the transition from the earlier copper-nickel composition to a bronze alloy in later years. This coin is sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and association with the Indian Head design, making it a key date in the series.
