How did I do with this Large Cent purchase?

Hey everyone,

I was just curious to hear your thoughts on how I did on this 1852 Braided Hair Large Cent. I bought it off the bay for $5.48 with $2.00 shipping. I am focused on completing the Braided hair set. I have 1847, 1848, and now the 1852. Slowly but surely I am adding to my set; but then again I have all my life to continue collecting these; so what's the rush?

My brother (greglax45) and I fuel our ebay expenses through selling unused "stuff" we find around our house. We have made quite a few bucks that way.

Have a great weekend CT!

I've been looking into getting early 1800's Large cents. I find them fascinating that 1 cent coins used to be as large as quarters, and the designs are beautiful.
I definitely have added a few to my wantlist

I was actually looking at one like your's graded AU55. They look so much better in higher grades/conditions.
Your's is very nice though!

 

I don't think you did bad for the money you spent. Looks like a nice coin for the grade.

 

Looks like a good honest circulated coin. At that price it's hard to go wrong. Good luck on your collection.

 

Not a bad coin for the price!

 

Looks like a bargain to me, good job!

 

Not bad at all. Love the large cents.

 

Good Job! Personally I wouldn't let any LC go for under $10.

$7.48 ? Heck, you can barely get a Big Mac and supersize fries for that money.

And large cents don't cause cardiovascular disease.

Sure... for $7.48, how can you go wrong ? Congrats !

 

You did real good , looks like a problem free coin .
