Description
The 1823 Matron Head Coronet Head Cent - Private Restrike Silver is a cent produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Matron Head Coronet Head Cents 1816-1835 series. With a mintage of 1.3 million, this is a scarce issue — the lowest mintage among 4 mint variants, representing only 25% of total production. The obverse features Liberty facing left wearing a hair ribbon inscribed LIBERTY, with a coronet of stars around her head and the reverse displays a wreath enclosing ONE CENT. The 1823/2 overdate is a notable variety. The 1823 is a semi-key date with a lower mintage. Struck at the original U.S. Mint facility, in continuous operation since 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $73 to $2.8K depending on grade and condition. Struck in silver, weighing 10.89 grams, 28 mm in diameter, with a plain edge. Cataloged as PCGS #402638.
