      General Notes: The 1889 Indian Cent has a high mintage of over 48.8 million making it very common. Circulated coins are extremely common and accessible. In order for uncirculated coins to be scarce and valuable there must be partial, if not complete, red coloring. The finest gems can be very rare.
