And the bison design for the reverse made a perfect companion image. It is arguably the most "American" of all United States coins and is a collector's favorite.

The Indian Head coins were notoriouly prone to wear, particularly the date and other elements such as the buffalo tail and horn, it was a known issue that was never fully rectified. Price: R 150.00 Inc Vat.
