    My Best Condition Large Cents of each different type I have found

    The photo has my best Liberty Cap type, Draped Bust type, Classic Head type, Matron Head type, and Young Head type. They are not necessarily my most valuable Large Cents but the best of the each type I have found.

    1796 BN with Pole is a $19,000 coin in G-4 condition. Is that not what you have there?

    The 1796 is a Sheldon 84 variety, worth nowhere near several thousand dollars. I also have a S-87 and S-91.
