What is a 1853-P Braided Hair Half Cent Coin?
The 1853-P Proof Braided Hair Half Cent Coin is a coin that was manufactured at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $0.01. As a "Proof" coin, it was manufactured in a limited quantity, which makes it generally more rare than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for circulation. The mintage of this coin is unknown and is therefore considered very rare at a minimum. This coin does not contain any notable amounts of precious metals.Coin Specifications
