- Undated (1834) Gulian Verplanck. HT-30, Low-16, DeWitt-CE 1834-4, W-10-160b. Rarity-2. Brass. Plain Edge. 27 mm. MS-63 (PCGS).
Coin alignment. A beautiful Choice example with deep brassy-gold patina and much of the luster remaining. Some light spotting is noted, mostly in the lower reverse field. The tokens of Verplanck and Seward are interesting as both use the same portrait, and yet the men were not twins. Several years ago Dave Bowers wrote a detailed article on this very subject for The Numismatist. In today's marketplace, tokens and medals in general are very strong, indeed dynamic in many instances. This outstanding HTT should draw wide interest.
Provenance: From the Q. David Bowers Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena's) sale of the Gilbert G. Steinberg Collection, November 2002, lot 5168. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
