Whitman Expo
The Lipton Gallery is displaying a $3 million Augustus Saint-Gaudens statue that inspired the famous, similar design for Double Eagle gold coins.

The mintage drops a bit to 1,790 for the 1903 proof Indian Cent; yet it is still too high to be anything more than a type coin. Very common with the brown color designation. Gradually more scarce in red-brown especially in PR66 or finer. Red gems are rare and any cameo is rare as well. Beautifully toned brown pieces or blazing red surfaces are the quite desirable and not too tough to find.
Obverse Description
A portrait bearing the likeness of a Native American in full headdress framed by the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the periphery. The date is centered at the bottom under the portrait.
Reverse Description
The reverse bears the denomination of ONE CENT in the center surrounded by a wreath bearing a ribbon with arrows tied in at the bottom center.
