"The Mint Act of February 21, 1857, replaced the old copper large cent with a small-diameter cent designed by Chief Engraver James B. Longacre. His new motif used a flying eagle combined with an agricultural wreath. Flying Eagle cents were produced for circulation only in 1857 and 1858. The Indian Head cents of 1859 had a laurel or olive wreath ( the Mint used both terms ) on the reverse. In 1860 this was changed to an oak-wreath-and-shield motif." - Whitman PublishingComposition: Flying Eagle...

"The Lincoln cent, the first regular U.S. coin to portray a specific individual, was introduced in 1909 to mark the centennial of Abraham Lincoln's birth. Sculptor and medalist Victor David Brenner designed both sides of the new coin, and his initials, V.D.B., are found on the truncation of Lincoln's shoulder.

The head does not represent any particular Native American, but is a composite of three defferent models.

In its orginal form, the bison stands on a raised mound, into which the denomination was set. However,...
