The Classic Head Large Cent was a type of one cent coin issued by the United States Mint from 1808 to 1814. Produced in Philadelphia, these coins feature a classic depiction of Liberty with a capped head on the obverse, while the reverse displays a simple design of a laurel wreath surrounding the denomination. The 1808 variant is particularly notable as it marks the final year of this specific design series, making it a key date for collectors of early American copper coins.
