The January 2012 Americana Sale

详细说明: 1794 Liberty Cap Cent. S-65. Rarity-1. Noyes Die State B. Head of 1794. VF-35 (PCGS). Actually this coin is an intermediate die state between Noyes A and B, the crack from the upper reverse border light and extending only to the uppermost pair of leaves on the right side of the wreath. Obverse cracks are even more minor with just a couple of spindly breaks discernible in the date area with the aid of a loupe. Both sides exhibit handsome medium copper patina to surfaces that are smooth, glossy and free of significant blemishes. S-65 is the most readily obtainable of the three popular Shielded Hair varieties of the 1794 Liberty Cap cent, so named because the denticulation on the obverse is much heavier on the left side, thereby "shielding" Liberty's hair.
