The US Mint produced many coins in 1818, but you will be hard-pressed to find even one that is more popular amongst collectors than the Large Cent from that year. Known as the 1818 Liberty Head Large Cent, the coin is a beautiful as it is rare.
On the obverse side of the Liberty Head Large Cent, Lady Liberty is depicted facing leftward. Sitting upon her head is a metal band of sorts, within which you will notice an inscription of the word "Liberty." On the bottom of the reverse, there is an inscription marking the 1818 year of minting. Finally, lining the outer edge of the obverse are 13 stars; representative of the 13 original colonies of the United States.
The design of the reverse side of the 181 Liberty Head Large Cent is a bit more simplistic. In the center there is a "One Cent" inscription which marks the coin's face value. Surrounding this is a highly detailed wreath that is circular. Finally, around the outside of all of this is an inscription which reads "United States of America."
