Indian Head Cents
Many collectors are interested in Indian Head Cents produced from 1860 – 1905. Although most of them are made from copper, most of them – especially early coins - hold a value of over $100.
There are three varieties of them - a Copper-Nickel with Laurel Wreath on the reverse, Copper-Nickel with Oak Wreath with a shield and a Bronze variety.
The coin was minted with a content of 88% copper and 12% nickel, because it was required by the law at that time. In 1864, its weight was reduced from 72 grains to 48 grains. The metal content of the coin was modified to 95% copper and a 5% mixture of zinc and tin.
They are very rare and make a great addition to coin collections.
