Whitman Expo
In early September, the U.S. Mint began selling bags and rolls of Semiquincentennial one-dollar coins.
Thank you to our sponsors!
Go check them out!
The mintage for the 1908 Indian Cent is 1,620. Brown pieces are common along with red-brown with the finest gems being scarce. Full red gems are scarce as well with the finest ones being very rare. Any grade with a cameo is, at the very least, scarce with high Mint State grades being rare. Collectors, be on the lookout for attractively toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces as those are the most coveted and are not too tough to find.
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.
