- Circa 1828 C. Wolfe, Clark & Spies Token. Musante GW-118, Baker-588, Rulau-E NY 958. Brass. VF-20 (PCGS). Deep golden olive brass with some scattered small areas of deeper patina in places, not atypical of early brass pieces. Traces of microgranularity and a flan crack are noted, the latter extending inward from the rim, tangent to the right side of the P in SPIES. These are scarce, and tough to find nice. For some reason, many are plagued with scratches and other problems. This has a fairly well-balanced appearance and good detail. This variety was the first struck in the series issued by this merchant, a determination made by the writer upon careful study of the die states of several high-grade examples. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from our Philadelphia Americana Sale, September 2011, lot 430. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
