This coin embodies the Mint's transition toward standardized federal currency amid the young republic's economic growth. The S-160 die, part of a prolific 1798 output, utilized a hub punch that introduced refined detailing, influencing subsequent issues through 1807. Its plain edge and bold lettering reflect hand-hammered production techniques of the era, where each piece was a testament to emerging industrial precision.
In an AU-53 state, as certified by PCGS, the S-160 retains sharp strikes with subtle wear on high points, preserving the luster and toning that whisper of its two-century journey through commerce and collections. This variety stands as a collector's emblem of resilience, bridging the Federalist age to modern fascination with early coppers.
