1854 Liberty Head Large One Cent

1854 Liberty Head Large One Cent - Inventory Number: CUR 180

The 1854 Liberty Head large cent is a coin that is highly collectible and sought after by collectors from the US and around the world. The coin may be old, but it is incredibly popular because of its historical significance and waning quantities available.

On the coin’s obverse side, the center of the coin is marked by the image of Lady Liberty, who is facing leftward. There is a band resting upon Lady Liberty’s head, and within that band the word “Liberty” is inscribed. Beneath the central image there is another inscription, this one marking the 1854 year of minting. Finally, around the outside of the coin there are 13 stars, each one representing one of the 13 original colonies of the United States.

On the reverse side of the coin, the center of the face is dominated by an inscription which marks the “One Cent” face value. Surrounding this, there is the image of a beautiful, circular wreath. On the outside of that, there is one more inscription, reading “United States of America.” On the very outer edges of both sides of the coin there are raised rays, and these rays give the coin a bit of added texture.

Comes housed in a 5 x 4 inch display case with black velvet backing and descriptive card.
