I like it and would go with 65RB. If that is a 63 I will take all you have.
It's well struck. More red on the reverse.

very nice
64RB
I would say MS-64 R&B. I think that there is a long, thin scratch running from the Indian’s forehead to the “D” in UNITED.” There is another smaller one to the left of the Indian’s mouth.
I really like the 1908-S cent. It was the first cent issued from a branch mint which makes it a historic item. Most collectors don’t think of that.
Sorry, but I say MS63RB. Here was my 64RB.

Looks like a 64RB to me.... Couple of marks in the left obverse field, below the shield and on the E of Cent on the reverse.... Cheers, RickO
I’m going with a 64rb. Can’t be that far off with that grade. I could see a 65 also

I like it, alot. Although Indians aren't my thing, I'll go out on a limb. 65RB
Sorry for the lousy pics. I’ll try to do better. Anyway here it is:
Got the bean to boot!
Real nice coin, and it’s a semi-key, and this eye appealing coin merits its CAC sticker!
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Steve.
And thank you to everyone who took a guess.
My pleasure. From the few you’ve shown us, you’re putting together a VERY eye appealing Indian Head Cent set. Some collectors just buy the label if the coin is in the grade they want, but you have the patience to only obtain truly problem-free coins. You should be very proud of your set!
Happy Hunting!

I guessed it first ! My computer ran outta ink and I couldn't get it in on time. 65 RB
I was going to give her a MS64RB, but I won't quit my day and night jobs! Nice coin and older, solid gasket holder!
