- Lot 46 1794 S-60 R3 PCGS graded AU53.Very glossy medium chocolate brown and steel. The surfaces are so smooth and glossy that it is possible this cent was lightly waxed long ago. No spots, stains, or verdigris. The only notable mark is a minor rim bruise under the fraction. M-LDS, Breen state IV, with a light die crack from the dentils to the curl left of the date. In addition the reverse is rotated 35 degrees clockwise relative to the normal head-to-foot die orientation. The reverse of this cent is plated in the 1910 Elder-Gilbert reference on the cents of 1794 (which was an update of the earlier 1893 Frossard-Hays reference). "H-23" is neatly written on the edge in yellow ink two times (this is the Maris-23 die variety). Graded VF30 and tied for CC#8 in the Noyes census, his photo #59292. Our grade is VF35.This cent comes with a fabulous provenance that contains many of the brightest luminaries in the pantheon of large cent collectors. The attribution and Boka provenance are noted on the PCGS label. PCGS population 2; 4 finer: 1 in 55, 2 in 62, 1 in 64. PCGS #35642. Estimated Value $9,000 - UP Ex William W.
