1900 Indian Head Penny Value Coin Values

There are five Indian cents known that are stuck on gold planchets. Among them are three dated 1900, one piece dated 1905, and an example dated 1906. The Judd pattern reference lists 1900 and 1907 gold cents in the section on mint errors. However, Andrew W. Pollock, III, listed the 1900 gold Indian cents as P-1990 in the regular pattern section of his reference. Pollock writes: 'Listed in Judd as a mint error, but it is difficult to imagine that a Mint employee would be so careless as to feed gold planchets into a coinage press fitted with one-cent piece dies.' Pollock suggests that these pieces may have been deliberately struck for one or more collectors.
The following Census of gold Indian cents was compiled from a variety of sources, including uspatterns.com, minterrornews.com, Donald Taxay's 1976 Catalogue and Encyclopedia, Andrew Pollock's 1994 United States Patterns and Related Issues, the Judd reference, and selected auction catalogs. Conversations with Fred Weinberg and Richard Snow provided additional background.1900 indian head penny value chart
