The nuclear symmetry energy coefficient (including the coefficient a sym (4) of the I 4 term) of finite nuclei is extracted by using the differences of available experimental binding energies of isobaric nuclei. It is found that the extracted symmetry energy coefficient a sym*(A, I) decreases with increasing isospin asymmetry I, which is mainly caused by Wigner correction, since e sym* is the summation of the traditional symmetry energy e sym and the Wigner energy e w. We obtain the optimal values J= 30.25±0.10 MeV, a ss= 56.18±1.25 MeV, a sym (4)= 8.33±1.21 MeV and the Wigner parameter x= 2.38±0.12 through a polynomial fit to 2240 measured binding energies for nuclei with 20≤ A≤ 261 with an rms deviation of 23.42 keV. We also find that the volume symmetry coefficient J≃ 30 MeV is insensitive to the value x, whereas the surface symmetry coefficient ass and the coefficient a sym (4) are very sensitive to the value of x in the range 1≤ x≤ 4. The contribution of the a sym (4) term increases rapidly with increasing isospin asymmetry I. For very neutron-rich nuclei, the contribution of the a sym (4) term will play an important role.(authors)
