I like it and would go with 65RB. If that is a 63 I will take all you have.

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.

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

Thanks Steve.
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!
