The Braided Hair Cent is a type of one cent coin that was minted in the United States from 1839 to 1857. The 1852 Braided Hair Cent was produced at the Philadelphia Mint and features a portrait of Liberty with braided hair on the obverse, while the reverse showcases the denomination encircled by a wreath. The coin is part of the larger series of cents and is significant for its design and historical context within mid-19th century American coinage. Collectors value Braided Hair Cents for their aesthetic appeal and relative scarcity, particularly in higher grades. The term "four dollars" does not directly relate to this specific coin type.
