From USA Coinbook:

There were 3 major varieties of the 1840 Braided Hair Liberty Large Cent, which was only minted in Philadelphia. The value depends on what condition the coin is in and what variety the coin is. According to USA Coin Book, these are the values:

Large Date: Basically, the date had large numbers. In good condition, this coin would be worth about $17 up to about $285 in MS60 mint condition. In MS63 choice uncirculated grade, this coin is worth about $460.

Small Date: This date had smaller numbers In good condition, this coin would be worth about $17 up to about $285 in MS60 mint condition. In MS63 choice uncirculated grade, this coin is worth about $460.

Small Date - Large 18: This variety was rare in that this was a date with small numbers except that the "18" in "1840" was in large numbers. In good condition, this coin would be worth about $19 up to about $650 in MS60 mint condition. In MS63 choice uncirculated grade, this coin is worth about $1200.

You will get less if you sell to a dealer because they have to make a profit in order to do business.

Really need more information. 1840 Large Coronet cent in good condition is worth about $20. In mint condition could be worth thousands.

You don't have a large cent because the last large cent was made in 1857. Any US cent dated 1863 should be an Indian Head cent. What you might have is a privately made token or something of that sort because it is not a US mint product if it is a large cent or not an Indian Head Cent.

What is the value of a US large cent 1949?

The US did not mint any large cents in 1949, large cents were only minted until 1857. If you have a small wheat cent dated 1949, it is a common issue and goes for about $.10 in circulated grades regardless of the mintmark. If you have a large cent, the value depends greatly on the condition, with ones in the late 1840s to mid 1850s fetching around $15 in circulated grades. However, as with all coins cleaning reduces the value so if you do in fact have a large cent, depending on the grade/year really determines the value, an uncirculated cent would be worth over $100 to a serious collector.
