Indian cents were last made in 1909, 34 years before the mint first used a steel planchet, so it can&#039;t be struck over an Indian cent.&nbsp; Also, you cannot have random images on the dies.&nbsp; The die making process doesn&#039;t work like that.</p><p><br /></p><p>What you have is some sort of staining or circulation damage that makes you think it&#039;s an Indian.&nbsp; It&#039;s similar to seeing shapes in the clouds, or pictures of Jesus on a piece of burnt toast.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
