1863 Indian Head Cent VF Copper-Nickel Civil War Penny 1c Partial LIBERTY Coin

The 1863 Indian Head cent was struck in copper-nickel at the height of the Civil War, when small cents were hoarded and used as everyday money. It was the last year of the copper-nickel composition before the switch to bronze in 1864.

This exact coin grades Very Fine with partial LIBERTY and good feather and wreath detail. It has dark carbon spots on the cheek, below the chin and in some letters. There is a dark gouge on the left reverse rim at about 9 o’clock, a small rim nick at the bottom of the reverse, and light verdigris specks on the reverse. Please view all of the close-up photos, as they are the best description of this coin’s condition.

SHIPPINGEvery coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEEWe maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT USContact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMERWe arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
