1892 Indian Head Cent Penny 1C VG Very Good Bronze Philadelphia Antique US Coin

Offered here is an 1892 Indian Head cent, struck in bronze at the Philadelphia Mint (no mint mark), a genuine 19th century penny over 130 years old.

Grade: VG (Very Good). Full rims with denticles on both sides, and the date and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA are complete. Every feather is outlined and separated from the hair. LIBERTY on the headband is worn away. The reverse is strong for the grade, with clear lines in the shield, a bold ONE CENT and the oak wreath showing leaf clusters and a distinct bow.

Condition, please read: there are dark spots and some surface corrosion on both sides, mostly in the obverse fields and around the reverse wreath, and light marks on the portrait and fields. Medium-dark brown. No rim damage seen. The fine lines and white specks visible in some photos are on the plastic capsule, not the coin. Please see all the photos, which are the best description.

Composition: bronze (95% copper, 5% tin and zinc)
Denomination: 1 Cent
Mintage: 37,649,832

Ungraded and uncertified. The approximate grade is our opinion only. The coin comes in the round capsule and square snap holder shown in the photos, both included. THE COIN SHOWN IS THE EXACT COIN YOU WILL RECEIVE.
