1826 Large Cent XF
In 1826, the United States Mint produced a large cent made entirely of pure copper. This substantial coin showcases the Classic Head Liberty on its obverse, a design created by John Reich. The profile of Liberty is accompanied by the year 1826 stamped below the portrait, offering a direct window into early American coinage. The reverse of the coin features a delicate wreath that encircles the denomination, which is written as ONE CENT. Encircling this central design along the outer border is the inscription UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. This piece is preserved in Extra Fine condition, allowing observers to appreciate the fine details of the engraving and the rich texture of the copper metal.
