1853 Coronet Large Cent Braided Hair BN VF25 is the piece collectors reach for when they want a mid-19th-century copper cent that still shows clear design detail. The date sits squarely in the long-running Braided Hair series, and the variety is the standard issue struck at Philadelphia. The obverse carries the coronet-and-hair style that defined the denomination from 1843 to 1857, while the reverse displays the familiar seated Liberty motif.

Struck in copper, the coin weighs 0.348 troy ounces and carries the natural brown toning typical of circulated large cents. Collectors value the 1853 date for its place in a series that ended just four years later, making it a straightforward addition to any type set or date run of Braided Hair cents.
