1851 Large Cent - XF
Add a beautiful piece of 19th-century American copper coinage to your collection with this 1851 Braided Hair Large Cent in Extremely Fine (XF) condition. Struck from pure copper, this historic one-cent piece represents the final decade of America's large copper pennies, which were replaced by smaller cents in 1857.
Designed by Christian Gobrecht, the obverse features a left-facing portrait of Liberty wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY, surrounded by 13 stars. The reverse displays the denomination ONE CENT within a decorative wreath, encircled by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
In Extremely Fine (XF) condition, this coin retains sharp design details with only light circulation wear, particularly on Liberty's hair and the wreath's higher points. Its impressive remaining detail, classic Braided Hair design, and historic copper composition make it an appealing addition to any Large Cent collection or early American coin type set.
