My Classic Head Cent Date Set!

Well as part of my large cent date set, the Classic Head cents are some of the most difficult. So I wanted to get them out of the way first. The majority of these are problem free, and some of them were purchased from fellow board members. The 1808 was purchased from Rhedden. The 1809, 1813 and the 1814 were purchased from Tom Hyland. The 1811 was purchased from Steve Ellsworth. The 1810/09 was purchased from Shawn Yancey and it was a PCGS VF25. Cant remember on the 1812..

Some of the coins did not photograph well. Specicially the 1809. It has much more detail than the image shows. The 1808 looks better in hand, but does have some red oxidation. The 1811 has a rim bump at 4 oclock. These were taken with a Canon Powershot. I was surprised as to how easy the Macro was to use. And I was shocked as to how well the close up of the 1810/09 came out!

Hope you enjoy them, and feel free to give your thoughts/comments!
