Lot Description

1813 Classic Cent. S-292. Rarity-2. MS-61 BN (PCGS). Golden-brown with tinges of yellow and gold intermixed on the obverse and reverse of this elusive Classic Head cent in Mint State. The strike is fairly sharp with Liberty sporting a minor double profile on her chin and her curls are well defined too. On the reverse the surfaces and luster are pleasing. Identifiable by one minor nick on the lower right of the E of CENT. Scarce in this grade and an important offering for the date specialist.
