1848 Braided Hair Large Cent — Very Fine (VF)

A handsome Very Fine example of the 1848 Braided Hair Large Cent. The braids in Liberty's hair are sharp, all thirteen stars are full, and the date is bold. Chocolate-brown surfaces carry subtle iridescent hues in hand. These big copper cents are over 175 years old and remain one of the most popular early US type coins.

Honest disclosure: there is a small mark near Liberty's ear, shown clearly in our close-up photos. We photograph every flaw so you can buy with confidence.
