This is an 1819/8 Large Cent which has been certified by PCGS as having XF Details and is encapsulated in a newer-style edge-view holder. The 1819/8 Large Cent is a popular overdate variety listed in the Redbook that carries a premium over the normal date variety. Please note that PCGS did not assign a numerical grade to this piece because of damage to the coin. Unfortunately, there is a light scratch from the top of the obverse which runs down into Liberty’s hair and a couple of smaller scratches near the upper rim. Otherwise, the coin has a nice chocolate brown color and is free of any noticeable spotting or discolorations. Despite the light scratches, a decent lightly circulated example of this overdate Large Cent. |
