- New York--New York. 1837 Centre Market. HT-239, Low-110, W-NY-300-10a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28 mm. MS-62 BN (PCGS).
Coin alignment. Mostly glossy copper-brown with some original rose-red color in the protected areas around the peripheries and devices. Surfaces a trifle granular, obverse die seems a bit tired with light swelling in the field around the portrait. Good strike save at 14TH on the reverse, nonetheless, and typical for the variety. This is an available HT number in an absolute sense, although VF to AU is the standard grade range for extant examples. Mint State pieces are scarce, and the offered token has the added desirability of an impressive provenance.
This market was located on Grand Street and was big enough to accommodate the training of militia on its upper floor.
Provenance: Ex Anthony Terranova; our (Bowers and Merena's) Thomas H. Sebring and Gunther P. Garbe Collections sale, March 1996, lot 3454; our (Stack's) sale of the Collections of James E. Dice & M. Lamar Hicks, July 2008, lot 3135; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
