Owner's Comments

POP #1 alert! This 1796 Liberty Cap 230+ year old coin is beyond cool. Its super cool. A total mintage of 110,000 with a decent survivor count of 1,000, but this 1796 Large Cent (PO01) is uber rare. PCGS rates it a POP #1 in this S-87 variety. Yes, the only one on the Planet in S-87. A prized catch for any lowball collector!
