The final year of issue for Proof Indian Cents is the 1909 with a mintage of 2,175, making this the perfect type coin for its series. Common with brown color in all grades. The finest gems with red-brown color are scarce from PR66 on. Gem PR65 examples in red are scarce with finer gems being quite rare. All cameos are very rare. Look for attractively toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces as those are the most desirable and are not very difficult to locate.
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.
