I don't collect this series by date, but I know hard that coin is to find. I think only the 1809 is tougher among the Classic Head cents. The best one I've ever had was a piece in Fair-2 that I bought from my mother's cleaning lady when I was a kid.

Actually the 1811/O would be the hardest and is the real key date to the series.
Barndog's coin is very nice, I would love to have it.

Thanks for putting a smile on my face.

I knew it would happen.
Nice coin.
Looks to be the same die state as mine, but the color and surfaces on yours are definitely superior.
What'd she grade?

I took that photo before cracking the slab. I did save the label. PCGS graded it VF30. It is perfect for my set...goal is nineteen coins in the VF range

Exactly what I thought. Wonderful coin!
That set is going to take some patience, but on the bright side, you've got a fabulous example of one of the toughest of the 19.

I got this one from Heritage's 9/11 sale of the Al Boka collection, it resides in a PCGS XF45 holder:
If I collected these in grades above VF, I would keep them in the holder too.

In my opinion, it takes unbelievable patience and opportunity to assemble such a set of VF classic head cents with nice color and surfaces. Certainly not something that can be acquired in a year or two.

Oh my that's nice! what a head-turner, and how much fun to enjoy the natural coins. Do you brush them?
