this is a new addition to my Classic Head Large Cent Set by Sheldon variety. There are 19 varieties in the set.
I already have a decent example for each of the 19 varieties, but I am trying to bring all of my set pieces up to the VFish grade level.
Just added this S-295, aka "Plain 4" 1814 cent to my collection.
It was entombed, so if you feel compelled, you can guess what grade opinion was on the label (I do save the labels, but discard the plastic for these coins)

Great coin. I'll say XF.

My favorite type within the series and your coin is near flawless for the grade.

Her hair looks like it had some rub after the coin turned brown/retoned. I bet it slabbed with no problems.
The coin has great eye appeal. Congrats!

Congrats on completing the die marriage set, Barndog!

BillJones, I think your assessment has a lot of merit to it.
spooly, yours too.
Tdec, the reverse does not appear to have been wiped. In hand and with mega-sized images, I can see flow lines or are they die deterioration lines? Either way, no signs of wiping.
johnny redsox, yes, that is a die crack. I really like the look. No double profile though.
I still grade the coin as suitable for my VFish set

A gorgeous coin! The flow lines looked like hairlines in the picture. Nice pickup!

This pic won't show much other than the really neat holder the set resides in. The coin board was courtesy of Dave Wnuck, now with HLRC
