1835 Token HT-425 Copper Clark & Anthony RI, RB MS (PCGS#77846)

August 2019 ANA U.S. Coins Auction Rosemont, IL

详细说明: Rhode Island--Providence. 1835 Clark & Anthony. HT-425, Low-94, W-RI-020-10a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-64 RB (PCGS). Coin alignment. A wonderfully original near-Gem, both sides exhibit a nice mix of mottled olive and gray-brown patina and vivid pinkish-orange color. Sharply defined in virtually all areas from a well executed and nicely centered impression, this lovely piece offers bountiful luster and a satin to softly frosted texture. Overall smooth, a few swirls of light carbon near the lower obverse and reverse borders appear to be the only impediments to an even higher numeric grade. While this type is plentiful even in lower Mint State grades, high grade survivors such as this can be elusive. This is one of the finer pieces that we have offered in recent years, comparable to the Choice Uncirculated Dice-Hicks and primary Ford specimens. Provenance: Ex Richard Hartzog, 1973; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
