While the "middle date" cents are all typically referred to as "Coronet Cents," the portrait of Liberty saw several modifications. Indeed, like the Classic Head cents before them, the Coronet cents had their detractors, who referred to the early Coronet designs as featuring the "obese ward boss." Perhaps, these snickering comments made their way back to the Mint, providing incentive for the design modifications.--------------------**The earliest design, aptly called the "Matron Head," displays a matronly figure of liberty, mature and sophisticated. This subtype was produced from 1816 to 1829; it is represented in the collection by the fabulous MS66RB Naftzger specimen of the 1820 cent.------------------------------------------**From 1830 to 1835, the Matron Head design was gently modified to a somewhat more youthful look, with a tighter neck and more defined chin; the collection contains the incredible Naftzger MS66RB specimen of the 1833 cent -- a surefire 67RB if ever the was one. (In fact, the PCGS Registry actually recognizes Naftzger's 1833 cent as being estimated at MS67RB!)--------------**Starting in 1835, Christian Gobrecht's artistic influences were seen throughout the full spectrum of American coinage, including a complete redesign of the Cent. The so-called Gobrecht "Head of '36" cent displays the new youthful Liberty with noticeably slimmer neck and still more defined chin, along with a total facial makeover. This design lasted from mid-1835 to mid-1837; it is represented in the collection by Naftzger's amazing MS67BN specimen of the 1837 cent.---------**The "Head of '38" cent came next, now displaying beaded hair cords to Liberty, in place of the previously plain cords. This design was featured from mid-1837 to early 1839; the collection features Naftzger's pristine MS67BN specimen of the 1838 cent.-----------------------------------**As the designs were being updated with greater speed, the Year 1839 witnessed no less than three distinctly different styles of the Coronet Cent (and the first Braided Hair Cents). 19th century coin dealer Ebenezer Locke Mason worked to sort these out, and in 1868 he described the distinguishing features of each, including two with rather colorful nicknames.------------------------**The first of these colorfully-named 1839 cents features the addition of a hair curl at Liberty's forehead. Dubbed by Mason as the "Silly Head," the nickname has remained ever since. The collection's Silly Head cent also hails from the Naftzger collection; an extraordinary MS66BN, which in Naftzger's words is "the most beautiful Silly Head ever seen!"-------------------------------------**Finally, the Coronet cents experienced their last modification, exposing Liberty's shoulder between her flowing curls. Mason nicknamed this style as well, and henceforth it has been known as the "Booby Head." The collection includes Naftzger's amazing MS66RB specimen.
