This listing is for the 1802 Large Cent Draped Bust Counter Stamped "1871". The 1802 Draped Bust Large Cent is one of the rarest US coins that has ever been produced. The obverse side of the 1802 Large Cent features, in the center, the right-facing Draped Bust of Lady Liberty. Towards the bottom of the incredibly detailed image is a drape, which is why the coin is referred to as the draped bust. This specific 1802 large cent has been counterstamped multiple times. The date 1871 was stamped twice on the obverse, and a small H or I to the right of the portrait. This unique addition adds to the large cents rarity. Some potential connections to the year 1871 stamped onto this coin could be significant about the various natural disasters that happened across the us during this time, with multiple fires. Additionally, the KKK was suppressed this year to protect the civil rights of the citizens, and there began a significant conflict between the U.S. Army and Native American tribes this year as well. Interesting Find!!!
