1870 Indian Head Cent Good to Very Good Condition

The 1870 Indian Head Cent in Good to Very Good (G/VG) condition is a sought-after early-date issue from the long-running Indian Head series (1859–1909). Struck from 95% copper, this coin features James B. Longacre’s iconic Liberty wearing a Native American-style headdress on the obverse and a simple oak wreath with shield on the reverse.

With a relatively low mintage of just 5.3 million, the 1870 issue is scarcer than many later dates, especially in any collectible condition. In G/VG condition, major design elements are visible but well-worn, with LIBERTY partially legible and the date clear.
