1837 Token HT-69, I Take The Responsibility, BN MS (PCGS#77365)

August 2019 ANA U.S. Coins Auction Rosemont, IL

详细说明: 1837 I Take the Responsibility. HT-69, Low-44, DeWitt-CE 1838-13, W-10-340a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-62 BN (PCGS). Coin alignment. A lovely example with pale autumn-brown patina throughout, with both sides also displaying faded gold and pinkish-rose undertones. This is an expertly produced piece, the detail sharp to full over all design elements. A couple of minor handling marks and faint carbon flecks are easily overlooked, as the appearance is smooth and the eye appeal superior for the assigned grade. This popular type is a muling of the Jackson die with H below the safe and the Van Buren Metallic Currency die, examples struck 1837 or later, per Bowers (2015). There are a few Mint State pieces extant, and these will usually be found representing HT-69 in leading Hard Times token cabinets. Provenance: From our Baltimore Auction of March 2014, lot 154.
