What is a 1853 half cent worth?

Answer 1

Answer

1856 Young Head Large Cent; in good condition is worth $12.00, in fine condition is worth $16.00, uncirculated is worth $150.00

More:There are two varieties of the 1856 Braided Hair Liberty Large Cent and the value depends on what condition it is in. There is a slanting 5 variety and an upright 5 variety. Basically the "5" in "1856" is either slanted or upright. The values are pretty much the same for both varieties so you really only need to pay attention to what condition the coin is in.

According to USA Coin Book, these coins in good condition are worth about $17 up to about $160 in MS60 mint condition. A coin in MS63 choice uncirculated grade is worth about $240.

Answer 2

Retail ranges from $25 in well-worn condition up to $170 if almost uncirculated.

Uncirculated coins in MS60 grade are worth $260, MS65 grade are worth $550 and a proof coin is worth about $2,600!

Answer 3

Answer 4

$45 to $65 in average condition

More:This coin would be a Braided Hair Half Cent. In good condition, it is worth about $38 and in MS60 uncirculated condition, it would be worth about $261. MS63 choice uncirculated coins would bring in about $505.

PR63 Choice Proof coins would easily be worth over $5,560 but these are quite special and very rare.

Answer 5

A 1858 cent coin would be called: a flying eagle cent. There were two types of these coins minted: one coin had large letters, the other had small letters. If the coin has large letters, its value in good (G-4) condition is: $30; if the mint state is MS-60, the value is: $350. If this coin has small letters, in G-4 condition, the value is: $30; in MS-60, its value is also: $350.

Answer 6

Coins with the date under the image of Britannia and HALF PENNY on the side with Queen Victoria are worth about $2 or $3 in average condition, perhaps double that if in better shape

If the date is on the side with the Queen's picture this is a rare variety that sells for $600 to $1300, but there are very few of these to be found in collections.
