I just received this 1890 Indian Head cent. The obverse looks close to full red. The reverse is red & brown.

There are two small marks on the neck and one at 10:00 in the obverse field. The reverse looks pretty clean under 10x magnification. Both sides have some tiny "fly specks".

What do people think? Thanks.

Your pics aren't matching your description.
From the images that coin would be a Brown.

Here's another set of shots under different lighting. The obverse is full red. The reverse is red and brown.

Looks like a 64 RB to me
