Message:: [QUOTE="Skyler, post: 1176079, member: 29434"]These are cool pieces! I love large and half cents and you have some nice ones. Not too long ago, these, along with half cents were not too popular. Recently however they are becoming more and more popular. The ones that you have are all considered Braided Hair types. Large cents minted from 1793-1857 and braided hair large cents in particular were minted from 1839-1857. So these large cents that you have are all later pieces. The ones that you have are all common dates, but are really awesome pieces that you should hold onto for a while. There is a variety for 1851 were the 51 was struck over 81, and although it is rare, if you can get a larger, clearer picture of your 1851 cent, we can check to see if you have one. They seem to be in F-VF condition and as of right now they are worth about 25-30 dollars, but if you have a 51 over 81, then it would be worth about 60 bucks. Hope this helps, thanks for posting![/QUOTE]
