Classic Head Half Cents were produced in the United States from 1809 to 1836, with the 1834 issue minted in Philadelphia.

The 2-cent piece, also part of the broader collectible coin panorama, was introduced later, reflecting different design trends and historical contexts in American numismatics. Collectors highly value these coins for their historical significance and unique designs.
