Description and History
Old American cents were about the size of a half-dollar, but the small cent that began with the Flying Eagle cent changed that. The Indian Head cent replaced the short-lived Flying Eagle Cent, becoming the first small cent design to run for any length of time.
The production difficulties caused by the Flying Eagle cent made the Indian Head penny a necessity. After the Civil War, this design became extremely popular, and with coin-operated machines becoming widespread, the cent saw unprecedented demand.
