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.
General Notes: The mintage more than doubles this year compared to recent prior issues with 2,350 coins struck. Brown pieces are common along with red-brown; only the finest gems are scarce. Full red gems are scarce as well, with the finest ones being very rare. Any grade with a cameo is scarce, at a minimum, with high Mint grades being rare. Look for attractively toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces as those are the most coveted and are not too tough to find.
