The 1897 "1 in Neck" is a popular variety in the Indian Cent Series. The point of a 1 is easily seen protruding from the neck of the major device. Tough to locate in all grades with Mint State pieces being scarce and gems being extremely rare. The value increases at a very gradual pace as the color designation goes from brown to red.
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.
