1888 Indian Head Penny Value

Answer 3

Value depends on grade. The 1888 Indian head cent had a mintage of 37,494,414 so it is not a rare or even scarce coin. Coins are called coins, you can forget the antique part. A real coin collector, never says he or she has antique coins. You also never go to an antique dealer to sell any either, you get the best deal from a coin dealer. In grade good: there is no liberty visible on head band, Value $1.50. In grade fine: liberty visible but weak,value $3.00. In extremely fine: world Liberty in head band sharp, only slight wear on ribbon end, all other details sharp. but coin does show wear in places. Value $13.50. Hope this helps. The above prices are close to what a dealer would pay.
