The Braided Hair Cents were produced by the United States Mint from 1839 to 1857, featuring a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The coins are notable for their depiction of Liberty with braided hair, a significant shift from previous designs. The 1853 Braided Hair Cent, like other cents of the era, is composed of copper and has a denomination of one cent. Collectors often seek these coins for their historical significance and variations in condition, rarity, and mint marks. Additionally, the term "Four Dollars" does not directly relate to the Braided Hair Cents, as they are one-cent coins and do not have a valued denomination of four dollars.
