Classic Head Large Cents were minted in the United States from 1808 to 1814, featuring the design by engraver John Reich. The 1810 edition showcases a slightly modified version of the Liberty portrait, with distinctive large cent characteristics such as a diameter of approximately 28 mm and a composition primarily of copper. These coins are considered significant in American numismatic history, as they represent the transition in design styles during the early 19th century and are sought after by collectors for their historical value and scarcity.
