Description

1812 MS 64 PCGS. A glossy, needle sharp specimen that exhibits surfaces that are mostly chestnut-brown in color, with a hint of orange-gold color on either side. Classic Head cents are among the poorest produced and, subsequently, scarcest type coins in high grades. This outstanding example should inspire excitement among serious collectors of early copper.
