The 1908 Indian Cent is a common issue in the Indian Cent Series that would make the ideal type coin even with the mintage drop from the previous few years. Circulated coins are extremely common and accessible. Partial or complete red coloring is a must in order for uncirculated coins to be scarce and valuable. The finest gems can be rare.
Obverse Description
A portrait bearing the likeness of a Native American in full headdress framed by the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the periphery. The date is centered at the bottom under the portrait.
Reverse Description
The reverse bears the denomination of ONE CENT in the center surrounded by a wreath bearing a ribbon with arrows tied in at the bottom center.
