Collectible coins encompass a wide variety of types, including historical pieces, currency errors, and commemorative coins. The 1 One Cent Penny, particularly the Classic Head Cents minted in 1809 at the Philadelphia Mint, is a notable example of early American coinage. These coins feature a design by Jean Baptiste de Lassus and were produced during a transitional period in U.S. minting, making them significant for collectors interested in early American history and numismatics. The Classic Head design was used from 1808 to 1814, and examples in excellent condition are highly sought after for their rarity and historical value.
