The Half Cent is the lowest denomination coin struck by the United States Mint. The coin was minted between 1793 and 1857 with five major types:
- Flowing Hair 1793
- Liberty Cap 1794 to 1797
- Draped Bust 1800 to 1808
- Classic Head 1809 to 1835
- Coronet 1840 to 1857
Personal Note: I love the 1804 "Spiked Chin" variety. I am not a big collector of error/variety coins, but I have owned quite a few Spiked Chins. The coin is dramatic and easily identifiable. There are also quite a few out there, so the coin is relatively affordable.
