- Undated (1688) American Plantations Token, or 1/24 Part Real. Newman 2-B, W-1135. Rarity-5+. Seven Harpstrings. Original. MS-62 (PCGS). 145.4 grains. A good deal of silvery luster persists across attractive medium gray surfaces, tinted with a bit of gold. Hints of green are seen on both sides. Sharp and fairly even in appearance, though the rims have begun to crumble a bit and tinpest has attacked the crown above the Hibernian shield. A circular pit on the horse's forequarters is noted as an identifier, but this piece is largely free of the tinpest corrosion that plagues these pieces. Good sharpness and eye appeal, a better than usual example of this historic early tin coinage. PCGS likes the MS-62 grade for these: they've assigned it 19 of the 55 times they've graded an example of this type. Just two have been certified finer, both MS-63. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. PCGS #49 Click here for certification details from PCGS.
