Offered here is a 1908 Indian Head cent from the Philadelphia Mint (no mint mark), struck in bronze in the second-to-last year of the Indian cent series, which ended in 1909.
Grade: VG (Very Good). The date 1908 is bold and UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is full and clear, with complete rims all the way around. The portrait and headdress are well outlined, the feathers are separated, and the upper edge of the headband shows across the forehead; the letters of LIBERTY are worn away. The reverse is the stronger side: ONE CENT is bold, the vertical lines of the shield are sharp and separate, and the oak wreath, bow and arrows still show leaf detail.
Condition, please read: even medium brown. A few small dark spots, including near OF on the obverse and beside the bow on the reverse, a small mark on the obverse rim above OF, and light circulation marks on the cheek. No cleaning seen. Please look at all the photos, which are the best description.
