Lot 392
1813 Classic Head Cent. . S-293. PCGS graded AU-55 and Del Bland graded VF-30. Behind the head is a rather small carbon spot, tiny ones exist at the left base of the second 1 in the date and at the rim on the lower left reverse. Free from distracting nicks and scratches. Medium dark chocolate brown.
Some brown luster resides in the fields and this is a very appealing cent overall. Slightly scarcer than some of the other dates of the Classic Head series, and another difficult coin to find on a decent planchet.
Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,500.
Ex: Ira S. Reed, privately 6/21/45 at $25.
