1844 Braided Hair Cent

I rated this purchase in the middle because it is a mixed bag....The die that struck this coin was on its' last legs, especially on the reverse. It was broken, rusted and/or dirty--which resulted in a blurry coin at best. To make matters worse--the thing was improperly cleaned! It has an artificial look to it. The only good thing I could say about this coin is its' price...as a study piece--it's good enough at 14 bucks.
