Indian Cents are a type of U.S. penny that were minted from 1859 to 1909, featuring a distinctive design with a Native American headdress. The 1877 Indian Cent is particularly notable for its rarity, as it is considered one of the key dates in the series. Produced at the Philadelphia Mint, it had a low mintage of just 852,500 coins, making it highly sought after by collectors. The 1877 Indian Cent is characterized by its copper composition and offers a glimpse into late 19th-century American numismatics.
