Anywhere from $1 to $60,000. Check out eBay for all the varieties available.

More Specifically1888 is not considered a rare date for Indian Head cents.

In well worn condition, it's worth about a dollar. If the LIBERTY in the headband is complete, it's worth about $4.00. A nice uncirculated one is worth about $30.00

More:There were two varieties of the 1888 Indian Head Cent. This coin was only minted in Philadelphia so the value greatly depends on what variety the coin is and what condition this coin is in. According to USA Coin Book, these are the values:

Normal Variety: In good condition, this coin is worth about $2.75 up to about $60 in MS60 mint condition. A coin in MS63 choice uncirculated grade is worth about $120. Proof coins were also minted in Philadelphia and these are worth about $310.

8 Over 7 Variety: This is a rare and valuable variety. Basically in 1888, the mint used old 1887 Indian Head Pennies and struck over them with the 1888 dies. Hence, you can see an "8" on top of a "7" in the date. In good condition, this coin is worth about $1,020 up to about $20,500 in MS60 mint condition. A coin in MS63 choice uncirculated grade is worth about $26,500. This coin is worth a tremendous amount of money in better conditions.
