I have an 18? Indian Head penny. Was this a hack job or mint error? Lots of pics. Thank you in advance for all of your responses.

Bottom feather points between CA of America making it a type II. My guess is 1895.

Either 1895 or 1905. It's a Type II coin.

Your coin was struck with a grease clogged die, a fairly common occurrence.

After looking at some 1895 and 1905 Indians, I am convinced this is 1895. The 5 on 1895 not quite the same as the one on 1905.
