Braided Hair Cents are a type of copper penny minted in the United States from 1839 to 1857. The 1848 Braided Hair Cent features a design with a braided-haired liberty head on the obverse and a wreath on the reverse, symbolizing unity. These coins are often sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and the transitional stages they represent in U.S. coinage, particularly during the increase in circulation of one-dollar coins during that period. The 1848 date is particularly notable among the series for its limited availability and interest among numismatists.
