1899: The World Around This Coin
In 1899, delegates met at the first Hague Peace Conference while the United States was emerging from the Spanish-American War into a larger international role. At home, factories, railroads, and fast-growing cities were reshaping everyday commerce.
The Indian Head cent design appeared from 1859 through 1909. By 1899 it was a familiar part of American pocket change, with Liberty in a feathered headdress on the obverse and a wreath and shield on the reverse.
Coin and Mint Details
The series bridged the Civil War era and the opening years of the twentieth century.
