Commentary


Ce type est en fait une variété du type”Coronet” baptisé “Matron Head” dont l’effigie était alors très décriée. Dès 1835, Christian Gobrecht tente de l’améliorer en rajeunissant le portrait. Le type modifié appelé “Braided Hair” est frappé de 1839 à 1857. Ce type sera le dernier pour les monnaies de 1 Cent de grand diamètre (large cent).
