1839-57 BRAIDED HAIR LARGE CENT.

Coronet braids hairstyle. Saved by Fancy Ephemera Paper Dolls. Olsen twins and Sienna. It has gained a great response from thousands of women.

This glamorous hairstyle works better on straight long hairstyle. Type 5 was adopted and used in 1838 and subsequent years. But this was nothing new.

The hippie 60s saw many a double braid while fishtail braids were big in the 80s. Halo Braid is well known for its natural and organic look and timeless beauty. A coronet braid is a basic braid wrapped about your head.

And there is a reason for it. By 1839 few people inside or outside the US. A bit more research reveals the hairstyle I was referring to in previous posts was called the Coronet style.

Since the 1839-1857 Braided Hair cents are also credited to Gobrecht I cant see any reason why the design of the 1838s is without Gobrechts influence. The Coronet large cent was a type of large cent issued by the United States Mint at the Philadelphia Mint from 1816 until 1839. From its very beginnings the large cent had suffered abuse.

Apparently the look could be achieved with a wall of pincurls or a braided or twisted plait of hair. A fast and easy style to wear for everyday if your hair is unusually long. Posted by BaronessVonVintage Email This BlogThis.
