Indian Cent Variety

Iampoorman2

Hi All -

I don't have a whole lot of Indian cent references. I was wondering if any of you would know if there is a listing for a 1906 Indian Head cent with a Repunched Date. More than likely there several listings. I've attached a photo to help with identification. The remnants are most visible on the 1 and the 6. Could you please help me identify it? Thanks.

Edited to say Repunched Date instead of RPM.

I don't see this variety of repunched date in my snow book but he say's "many very minor repunched dates". I am not sure but is this the "scarce" open 6 variety? mike

Like I said, I don't have much reference material on indian cents. I doubt if it's an open six variety. I'm pretty sure it's a re-punched date though. I was just hoping it had a listing so I could label it as such. Thanks for the info. though.

Nice rpm, clear in the picture

Yes that is without question a repunched date but unfortunatly on most indian cents it does not increase value much. mike

As Darktone already mentioned, there are many, many (over 25)RPDs listed in Snow's 2nd Ed. Volme 6 for 1906. Most have an interest rating of "one star", or less, which translates to "a slight premium, probably no more than 2X" of the coins value without the RPD. I don't think you will see much, if any, premium. Sorry.

Pushkin- I agree not much of a premium for a repunched date indian cent it might actually be harder to find one without a repunched date. mike
