- 1793 Flowing Hair Cent. Wreath Reverse. S-5. Rarity-4. Vine and Bars Edge. AG-3 (PCGS). Smooth and glossy dark brown surfaces are essentially ideal for a 1793 cent of this grade. Two ancient scratches are noted on the obverse and another is seen on the reverse. A second reverse line appears more as minor planchet anomaly. This very scarce S-5 vine and bars variety is identifiable by it being the only large LIBERTY among the wreath cents; and also, as stated in Walter Breen's Encyclopedia, "The date wears down faster than other details." This piece first appeared at the EAC Auction 2000 where it was graded by strict EAC standards as AG3+, and then again in the EAC Auction 2013 also as AG3+. Both lot tickets and descriptions are included. Provenance: Ex EAC 2000 sale:102; EAC 2013 sale:105; Michael Iatesta. EAC:AG3+ Click here for certification details from PCGS.
