详细说明

Choice glossy dark steel and chocolate brown. Sharply struck and almost perfectly centered on a flawless planchet. The date is bold with only the first and last digits tight to the edge of the planchet. The legends are bold as well and are complete except for the tops of S UNUM, which are tight to the edge or very slightly off the planchet. Some of the dentils are visible on the obverse, which is quite unusual as most of these were struck on planchets of insufficient diameter. An exceptional example of this historic and popular early copper, believed to have been a prototype for our earliest Federal coinage. In a new NGC 4 pronged holder. Pop 1; 4 finer, 1 in 62, 2 in 63, 1 in 64</B>. <BR>Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. <I><BR>The Mark Gordon Collection.</I>
