The Draped Bust Large Cent is a notable type of US coin minted from 1796 to 1807, with the 1803 issue being particularly significant. Coins from the Philadelphia mint during this period often feature a bust of Liberty draped in fabric on the obverse, while the reverse typically displays a wreath surrounding the denomination. The 1803 Draped Bust Large Cent is highly collectible, appealing to numismatists due to its historical context and limited mintage. The coin is primarily composed of copper and has substantial numismatic value based on its condition and rarity.
