1884 Indian Head Cent – Worn Condition
Overview
A genuine piece of late 19th-century American history, this 1884 Indian Head Cent reflects the character and appeal of long-circulated classic copper. Designed by Chief Engraver James B. Longacre, the 1884 issue saw a lower total production run compared to the massive mintage numbers of the late 1880s and 1890s.
