- 1834 Running Boar. HT-11, Low-10, DeWitt-CE 1834-11, W-10-230a. Rarity-2. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-63 BN (PCGS). Coin alignment. Satiny and smooth surfaces are predominantly toned in rich copper-brown. Traces of original rose-red color persist, especially around the peripheral devices, and more so on the obverse. Sharply struck in general, although the obverse die was failing when this piece was produced, with a curving crack from the border outside the letters CR in CREDIT, through the pig's head and body, to the border past the date. A second obverse crack extends up from the pig's back, and the reverse is lightly cracked from the second letter T in SUBSTITUTE into the field nearly to Jackson's left shoulder. HT-11 is a popular and readily obtainable variant of the Running Boar type with the pig's snout pointing between the words PERISH and CREDIT, Jackson's portrait with a smaller head and broader shoulders than that used for HT-9 and 10. This piece, from a similarly late obverse die state as the Dice-Hicks specimen, is particularly choice and sure to please. Provenance: Ex C.F. Kirtley, June 15, 1986; Stephen L. Tanenbaum, estate, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
