Offered here is a 1906 Indian Head cent from the Philadelphia Mint, struck in bronze late in the Indian cent series.
Grade: VG (Very Good), high end. The date 1906 is full and bold and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is complete. The upper edge of the headband shows from the forehead back into the feathers, and every feather of the headdress is outlined and separated. LIBERTY is worn away. The reverse is the strong side: ONE CENT is bold, the vertical lines of the shield are sharp and separate, and the oak wreath, ribbon, bow and arrows all show good detail.
Toning: medium brown with purple, red and blue iridescent highlights that show as the coin is turned.
Condition, please read: the surfaces have a somewhat granular texture on both sides, most visible in the enlarged photos, and there are light circulation marks. Rims are complete. Please look at all the photos, which are the best description.
