- New York--New York. 1837 Smith's Clock Establishment. HT-314, Low-135, W-NY-940-20a. Rarity-2. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-64 BN (NGC). Coin alignment. A wonderfully original, mostly medium brown example that reveals iridescent apricot and powder blue undertones as the surfaces dip into a light. Direct lighting also calls forth appreciable semi-reflective tendencies from the fields, the finish otherwise of a satiny nature. Sharply struck with strong visual appeal. Choice About Uncirculated and Mint State survivors of this HT number are scarce to rare and the province of advanced specialists in the Hard Times series. This impressive near-Gem is far finer than the SLT-Bowers specimen in PCGS AU-58 that appeared as lot 377 in our August 2019 ANA sale. Provenance: Ex F.C.C. Boyd estate; our (Stack's) sale of the John J. Ford, Jr. Collection, Part IV, June 2004, lot 270. Click here for certification details from NGC.
