What is value of 1888 large liberty head penny?

1888 makes it an Indian head cent, which is a small coin (same size as modern Lincoln cents). The '88 is a relatively common date, worth anywhere between $2 and $50 depending on condition. If the coin is in fact larger, still dated 1888, then that's probably not Liberty on the coin, but rather Queen Victoria. If it is, the denomination will say "One Penny" rather than "One Cent". Prices for that coin start at around $3.
