The Coronet Head Cent is a type of copper coin that was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1857, characterized by its distinctive design featuring a classical bust of Liberty. The 1834 version specifically marks a transitional phase in its design, as the earlier 1834 cents were often confused with the later issues. Coins from the Philadelphia mint, including the Coronet Head Cents, are notable for their historical significance and collectibility, especially among numismatists focusing on early American coinage. The one-dollar coins from this era are also sought after but differ in design and rarity, making each type valued differently in the collector market.
