coins \ Coin \ United States of America \ $3 (Three Dollars) \ Coronet Head Cents \ 1818
The Coronet Head Cent, produced from 1816 to 1839, features a design by engraver Robert Scot and showcases Liberty with a coronet. The 1818 version is notable for its distinctive features, including the large size of the coin and the details of the hair and facial expression. The three-dollar gold pieces, introduced in 1854, served to facilitate $3 trade in gold, but the Coronet Head Cent does not directly relate to this denomination. Collectors regard both coins as significant in American numismatic history due to their representations of early U.S. currency design and evolution.
