1855 Braided Hair Large Cent (1c) Upright 55

Glossy chestnut-brown color with warm red undertones is the first impression on this large cent, and the look holds up under close inspection. The surfaces are smooth and original, with satiny luster moving through the fields and subtle red-orange accents tucked around the stars, portrait, and wreath. Strike detail is crisp throughout, including Liberty’s hair, wreath leaves, and lettering, giving the coin a sharp gem presence. Housed in a PCGS Gold Shield holder with a green CAC sticker, this example delivers excellent eye appeal.
