Indian Cents, officially known as Indian Head pennies, were struck by the United States Mint from 1859 to 1909. These coins feature a design by engraver James B. Longacre, showcasing a depiction of Lady Liberty adorned with a Native American headdress on the obverse, while the reverse displays a wreath encircling the denomination. The Indian Cent is composed of 88% copper and 12% nickel, giving it a distinctive bronze color. Collectors highly value Indian Cents, particularly rare dates and high-grade specimens.
