- New Hampshire--Portsmouth. 1837 E.F. Sise & Co. HT-195, Low-132, W-NH-200-10a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-64 BN (PCGS).
Coin alignment. Exceptional quality and eye appeal for the variety, both sides retain appreciable pinkish-orange color in the protected areas around some of the design elements. Otherwise toned in handsome medium brown, the surfaces are smooth, satiny and virtually blemish free. Close inspection with a loupe reveals considerable evidence of die rust on the reverse, generally around the central lettering. Most collectors will have to settle for an EF or AU with it comes to this HT number, although Mint State pieces are obtainable with patience. Few can match the present near-Gem, however, which retains more original mint red than the Dice-Hicks specimen cataloged as Very Choice Uncirculated. Mr. Ford's was Uncirculated with a small verdigris spot.
Provenance: Ex J. Boesl, December 7, 1974; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
