Struck over 175 years ago at the Philadelphia Mint, the 1829 Classic Head half cent is a precious keepsake from the early years of the United States. Issued during the first year of the presidency of Andrew Jackson, this pure copper coin represents an obsolete denomination, as the last U.S. half cents were struck in 1857. Though half cent coins ceased to be of practical use after the mid-19th century, these historic coins have assumed their rightful place as prominent and sought after collectibles.
