The Braided Hair Cent is a one-cent coin that was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1857. The design features a portrait of Liberty with braided hair on the obverse and a wreath on the reverse. The 1854 Braided Hair Cent is particularly notable for its production during a time of transition in U.S. coinage and is sought after by collectors for its historical significance and distinctive design. The U.S. also issued a $10 gold coin, known as the Eagle, which has different designs, but is unrelated to the Braided Hair series.
