From the Civil War Era! The Indian Head Penny was the first regular-issue small-size Penny coin. It was first struck by the U.S. Mint in 1859. The original coins from 1859-1864 were made in copper-nickel and are among the most prized U.S. coins of the 1800’s. All later coins were struck in bronze.

Just a tiny fraction of the original copper-nickel coins have survived, so don’t miss this rare opportunity to own this genuine Indian Head Copper-Nickel Penny from the Civil War era!
