The Draped Bust Large Cent was a type of coin minted in the United States from 1796 to 1807, with the most notable early issues being produced in 1800. Coined in a copper format, the 1 cent denomination features a depiction of Lady Liberty with flowing hair draped in a veil on the obverse, while the reverse typically showcases an inscription of "One Cent" encircled by a wreath. The 1800 Draped Bust Large Cent is particularly collectible due to its historical significance, distinctive design, and the relatively limited mintage, making it a sought-after item among numismatists and collectors of early American currency.
