    The so-called “ClassicHead” large cent produced by the United States Mint in the early 1800s is oldenough to be thought of in that context, but it’s not exactly “classic” interms of beauty. On the contrary, its portraiture is plain—some might even sayhomely. And yet, while it may be misnamed, it is viewed with great affection bymany collectors.
