1851 Braided Hair Cent. N-41. Rarity-4. MS-66 BN (NGC). CAC.,This lovely 1851 cent offers warm copper brown patina on surfaces that retain appreciable remnants of rose-orange luster, particularly on the reverse. The central devices are sharply defined, and the overall appearance is as nice as would be expected for the assigned grade. Noyes Die State B/C.,,
