Error
Description
A repunched date is visible on this 1864 Indian Head cent (L on Ribbon variety). A repunched date occurs when one or more digits of the date are punched into the die more than once in slightly different positions. In this case, the 186 is repunched below the 186 with the spread being greater on the 1. This variety is cataloged as FS-2305 and Snow-2. The 1864 L on Ribbon variety features designer James Longacre's initial "L" on the lower ribbon of the Indian's headdress. This was the first year the initial appeared, added partway through the bronze production run.
