Collectible coins encompass a wide range of numismatic items, including historical pieces, rare coins, and specific series that hold particular value among collectors. The Braided Hair Half Cent was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1857, with the 1844 edition produced in Philadelphia. These coins feature a design depicting Liberty with braided hair on the obverse and a smaller denomination designation on the reverse. The 1844 Braided Hair Half Cent is particularly sought after for its historical significance and the scarcity of certain minting years, contributing to its collectibility.
