The Draped Bust Cent is a significant type of collectible coin struck by the United States Mint in Philadelphia from 1796 to 1807. The design features a draped bust of Liberty on the obverse and a wreath encircling the denomination on the reverse. The 1796 Draped Bust Cent is particularly notable as it is one of the earliest coins minted in the U.S. and is highly sought after by collectors for its historical significance and rarity. The 1 Cent Penny denomination reflects America's early coinage system and is an essential part of U.S. numismatic history.
