<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bert Gedin, post: 3101465, member: 92556&quot;]Obviously, the U.S. penny called Indian Head Cent wasn&#039;t named by Pickin and Grinin. It was minted in the years 1859 - 1909, so the name would not be a modern one, and names do stick. It was probably called the same during the American Civil War, not exactly yesterday. I would suggest that the name may now be past it&#039;s sell-by-date. By &quot;Indians&quot; today, you may mean Indigenous Native Americans. And if you ask several Native Americans, they are unlikely to say they prefer to be called Indians. Just as black people today usually prefer not to be called negroes or even Jim Crow.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
