With 600 coins struck, the 1868 Indian Cent is a much better date in its proof series. Scarce up to gem PR65 with high-end gems, red pieces and those with cameo surfaces being very rare. Beautifully toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces are the most desirable and worth the search.
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.
