- 1788 Massachusetts Cent. Ryder 15-M, W-6400. Rarity-5. Period After MASSACHUSETTS. Fine-12 (PCGS). 153.2 grains. Streaks of medium copper adorn a base of lighter golden-brown patina. This is a nicely centered, well balanced coin for the grade with all major design elements bold. Minor flan flaw at 11 o'clock on the obverse border, few trivial edge nicks at 3 to 4 o'clock, otherwise the surfaces are smooth and inviting. A respectable circulated example of this scarce die pairing, the obverse of which was not listed by Ryder in his original 1920 monograph on the series. Provenance: From the Michael Demling Collection of Massachusetts Cents.
