    Got an 1826 Classic Head in the mail today.
    It's a Cohen 2 (C-2).
    One step closer to completing the set by Cohen variety.
    The set has 24 varieties.
    This for me is number 21.

    The easy PUP's are all on the reverse.
    -- Spike from the branch below the T in UNITED.
    -- Spike from the leaf tip above the HA in HALF.
    -- Spike from the leaf tip at the lower left of the C in CENT.
    There are more but these are the easy ones to find.

    physics-fan3.14 You got any more of them.... prooflikes?

    I don't know anything about copper varieties.

    But I do know that is an absolutely fantastic coin - beautiful color, great surfaces, and fantastic preservation. Wonderful pickup!

    Beautiful, original coin; love that mahogany brown look. One of my favorite designs, too
