The obverse features Liberty facing left wearing a fillet or headband inscribed LIBERTY, while the reverse displays a wreath enclosing ONE CENT. Designed by John Reich. Struck in copper, weighing 10.89 grams, 28 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #1576. The Classic Head Cent was produced during a period of national growth and the aftermath of the War of 1812. A short-lived series of only seven years with relatively low mintages.
