- New York--New York. Undated (1835-1837) Van Nostrand & Dwight. HT-336, Low-287, W-NY-1040-10a. Rarity-4. Copper. Reeded Edge. 26.5 mm. MS-64 RB (PCGS). Medal alignment, with a nearly 30 degrees clockwise rotation. Splashed with warm gray-brown patina, both sides of this lovely piece retain plenty of original bright orange color that is most extensive around the peripheries. Sharply to fully struck with a hard satin texture that is just a few faint obverse spots away from a full Gem Mint State rating. A shallow flan flaw in the field above the letters YO in YORK is as made. We have been fortunate to offer a number of Uncirculated examples of this HT number over the last couple of decades, although the typical survivor is well circulated and grades VF or EF. Mr. Ford had two Choice Uncs, although neither retained as much mint red as seen here. The Dice-Hicks specimen was a stained Unc. Provenance: Ex Max M. Schwartz, 1974 ANA Convention; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. The plate token for the variety in the 2015 Whitman Guide Book of Hard Times Tokensby Q. David Bowers. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
