- Undated (1834) William Seward. HT-28, Low-15, DeWitt-CE 1834-5, W-10-112b. Rarity-3. Brass. Plain Edge. 27 mm. MS-63 (PCGS). The reverse is rotated approximately 45 degrees clockwise from coin alignment. Original brassy-copper surfaces are more lightly patinated in the center of the reverse, where brassy-gold dominates. Well centered in strike with otherwise sharp definition, softness of detail in the center of the reverse is characteristic of the variety. Satiny in texture with only faint, well scattered carbon flecks precluding an even higher Mint State grade. With most examples of HT-28 in numismatic hands grading VF to AU, this desirable Choice Uncirculated is a noteworthy condition rarity. Considering the popularity of Hard Times tokens today, we expect bids to come from all directions! Provenance: From the Q. David Bowers Collection. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
