Undated Washington Double Head Military Bust Cent

Coin Details

Description

An undated Washington cent featuring a military bust on both sides (double-headed). This unusual piece shows Washington's uniformed bust on both obverse and reverse, eliminating the typical wreath or eagle reverse. Double-headed coins and tokens were sometimes produced as errors (two obverse dies) or deliberately as novelty pieces. This Washington double head cent is a curiosity item popular with collectors.

Rarity Notes

Scarce. Double-headed Washington pieces are popular novelty items.
