I once had one in PR 64. I am kinda sad I sold it 😢
Nice proof 👍
Looks to be a very nice coin, I don't have a proof so this will have to do.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
Best I can do.

These were two of my favorite Indians, so sorry that I ever sold them.

Here’s mine: 1888 65BN CAC that has a lovely blue sheen to it under light (that I have utterly failed to capture in this photo).

Proof BN and RB Indian Cents are so satisfying to have.
Not too many years ago they were really cheap, even in slabs.
Their coolness has been noticed by the collecting masses.
Very, very nice IHC's here.... As much as I have always liked these (and still do), I never did try a set. Probably will not start one now either - that being said, I do think I will get a couple of proof IHC's... they are gorgeous. Cheers, RickO
love the 1862. nIce
I’ve been wanting a business strike, but had to pick this one up last summer... still planning a nice UNC at some point.

I think that the 1864 Bronze is a bit underrated.
And the 1864-L might be a bit overrated.
The Bronze and the L side by side.
Some very nice Indian heads.
I have a few but no proofs as of yet.

Kennedys are my quest...
The ones in my collection are so worn I never knew there was a design in the ribbon!!
