Best Answer

Assuming the coin is circulated and does not have an "S" mintmark, the 1908 Indian Head cent is a common date coin. Most show a lot of wear. For an accurate assessment of value the coin needs to be seen and graded. In general retail values for low grade coins are $1.00-3.00, better grade are $7.00-$10.00 and coins showing almost no wear run from $15.00-$21.00. Values are a market average and only for coins in collectible condition, coins that are bent, corroded, scratched, used as jewelery or have been cleaned have far less value if any to a collector or dealer.
