1795 Liberty Cap Large Cent Penny - Plain Edge

This variety of the 1795 Liberty Cap Large Cent (Penny) has a plain smooth edge with no words and no reeds. This is the most common variety for this year. In addition: the words "ONE CENT" will appear centered within the wreath on the reverse of the coin whereas the "lettered edge" variety will have it higher up. This is another clue to identifying this variety. The difference between the two is depicted in the example comparison image below:
