NumisMedia Weekly Market Report
Copper Attracts Specialty Collectors
May 12, 2014
Half Cents and Large Cents are showing more signs of strength over the last several months. These two series are generally always in demand. Many collectors are looking for a specific variety and coins with nice planchets. However, we monitor lots of sales for coins that may have problems with corrosion or excessive marks. Even these coins have buyers; and if they are a rare variety, there will be anxious buyers at very competitive levels. Since the last LD Wholesale Market Dealer Price Guide there have been numerous increases for coins that have traded in the marketplace. The following list shows some of the many coins that have increased in the last month.
Date/Denomination | Grade | Current Market |
1793 Half Cent | AU58 | $39,500 |
1794 Half Cent Head Right | MS62 BN | $21,850 |
1794 Half Cent Head Right | MS63 BN | $43,500 |
1796 Half Cent with Pole | AU55 | $98,500 |
1804 Pl. 4 Stemless | MS64 BN | $4,075 |
1805 Sm. 5 Stemless | MS62 BN | $1,875 |
1811 Half Cent | VF20 | $2,125 |
1835 Half Cent | MS64 Red | $2,475 |

1793 Large Cent America | XF40 | $49,750 |
1793 Large Cent Vine & Bars | MS65 BN | $190,000 |

1794 Large Cent Starred Rev. | XF40 | $165,000 |
1798 Large Cent 2nd Hair Style | AU55 | $3,650 |
1807 Large Cent Lg. 7/6 | MS65 BN | $52,500 |
1808 Large Cent | AU55 | $3,775 |
1814 Large Cent Pl. 4 | MS65 BN | $23,500 |
Indian Cents and early Lincoln Cents are also attracting a lot of attention. Red coins, especially the rare dates, are very difficult to acquire and the prices are typically above current levels because of the small quantities available. Where the collectors have been extremely vigilant of late is for the Red & Brown coins. In many cases, buyers feel that the coins they purchase have much more Red than there is Brown. This week the 1870 Indian Cent in MS65 RB is higher at $1,150 Market and the 1883 in the same grade is now at $400.
In Lincoln Cents, the 1909 S in MS65 RB is up to $565, while the 1927 S in MS64 RB climbs to $400. By the way, there are still plenty of increases for the Red coins in both series.
The metals continue to create havoc for those who are looking for higher prices. Last week was mostly down; but this morning prices have moved higher. Gold is back up to $1,295 and Silver is over $19.50. Buyers remain active for any and all metals at this time.
