The final issue of this metal composition and the second lowest mintage to just the 1861. Slightly more common than the 1861 but more popular because of this massive change in the production of Indian Cents in 1864. Gems are scarce with the finest of those being quite rare.
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.
