- "1789" Mott Token. Breen-1020, Rulau NY-610. Thick Planchet. Plain Edge. AU-58 (PCGS).
218.4 grains. A satiny medium brown example with exceptional striking quality for this often softly defined type. The clock is virtually full, a relatively small break at the upper left corner pointing to an earlier die state. The eagle's plumage is equally impressive with sharp to full delineation throughout. Ideally centered with universally denticulated borders, this smooth and virtually pristine-looking example is a strong contender for a Mint State grade. This enigmatic type is thought to have been made as late as the 1830s, probably to commemorate the founding of the Mott Company in 1789. Far superior to the typically offered survivor, even of the relatively plentiful thick planchet variant, this premium quality example is worthy of the strongest bids.
Provenance: From the Greenway Collection. Stack's paper envelope included.
PCGS# 603.
