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: At a mintage as high as 3,575, the 1881 proof Indian Cent makes for a fantastic type coin. Brown pieces are common along with red-brown with the finest gems being scarce. Full red gems are scarce also ,with the finest ones being very rare. Any grade with a cameo is, at the very least, scarce with high Mint State grades being rare. Look for attractively toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces as those are the most desirable and are not too tough to find.
