Lot Description

1814 Classic Head Cent. S-295. Rarity-1. Plain 4. AU-50 (PCGS). Our multiple offerings in the present sale notwithstanding, the Classic Head cent of 1808 to 1814 is one of the more conditionally challenging of U.S. coinage design types. This is an uncommonly well preserved survivor with sharp devices and a generally smooth, satiny texture. Warmly toned in a blend of rose-brown and antique copper with a few faint spots that are easily overlooked at most viewing angles. A find for the quality conscious type or variety collector. Breen Die State X. PCGS# 36517. NGC ID: 224Y. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
