Indian head
Old cent image
Indian head refers to a design featuring the profile of a Native American person, historically used on U.S. coins and stamps.
The Indian head penny, minted from 1859 to 1909, is the most familiar example: He found an Indian head cent in his grandfather's collection.
The term appears in collectibles and antiques contexts.
The design is now considered dated and potentially offensive for its romanticized portrayal.
