There are Flying Eagle cents and there are Indian Head cents but they're not the same coin. Please look again and post a new, separate question with the coin's date/
As the names might suggest, Flying Eagle cents have a picture of a soaring eagle on the front while Indian Head cents have a stylized Native American image*. Also Flying Eagle cents were minted only in 1856-1858 but the first Indian cents were minted in 1859 so there was no overlap in production.
(*) The image technically represents Miss Liberty and was modelled by the designer's daughter, but everyone calls them Indian Head cents anyway!
