- 1788 Massachusetts Cent. Ryder 6-N, W-6240. Rarity-3-. No Period After MASSACHUSETTS. EF-45 (PCGS).
A predominantly smooth, glossy, autumn-brown example with a lovely appearance in hand. The denticulation is incomplete in isolated areas, but both sides are generally well centered on the planchet with all major design elements boldly to sharply defined. Concentrations of faint scrapes and other equally trivial blemishes are evident in the lower right obverse field and on the reverse at the letter U in MASSACHUSETTS. Though not a major rarity, the Ryder 6-N die marriage is mostly found in grades of Very Fine or less, with only a small handful of pleasing high circulated grade survivors like this to be found, and worth a premium as such. This die marriage is also significant as one of just two (the other is Ryder 13-N) that correspond to the No Period After MASSACHUSETTS Guide Bookvariety of the 1788 Massachusetts cent.
Provenance: Collector envelope with attribution notation included.
PCGS# 45419.
