1867 Indian Head Cent VG
The 1867 Indian Head Cent represents a fascinating era in American copper coinage. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint, this one-cent piece is composed of a durable alloy containing 95 percent copper, with the remaining five percent made of tin and zinc. Designed by James B. Longacre, the coin features a distinct obverse depicting Liberty adorned in a traditional Native American feather headdress, surrounded by the legend "UNITED STATES" and the 1867 year of issue. The reverse of the coin presents a clean, classic layout where the denomination "ONE CENT" is framed elegantly within a wreath. This particular specimen survives in Very Good condition, offering a tangible look at a design that circulated widely during the post-Civil War period.
