Description
The 1867 Indian Head Cent - 67/67 is a cent produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Indian Head Cents 1859-1909 series. With a mintage of 9.8 million, this is a less common issue — the lower-mintage of the two mint variants. The obverse features Liberty wearing a feathered headdress, often misidentified as a Native American — actually represents Liberty adorned with a chief's war bonnet and the reverse displays an oak wreath with a shield at the top, enclosing ONE CENT. Minted during Reconstruction and the Gilded Age, as the nation healed from civil war and debated the role of silver and gold in the monetary system. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $73 to $556 depending on grade and condition. Struck in 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc, weighing 3.11 grams, 19 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #92088.
