- Undated (ca. 1793-1795) Kentucky Token. W-8805. Rarity-5. Copper. Engrailed Edge. MS-63 BN (PCGS).
148.0 grains. Choice surfaces are a pleasing light chocolate-brown in color and possess slightly prooflike luster along with traces of mint red. Just a few trivial marks on each side and a couple spots and one streak of darker toning on the reverse. Sharply struck and with overall excellent eye appeal. A scarce edge variety for the type, traditionally called R-6, although the number of auction appearances and grading service populations suggest a slightly lower rarity. Still scarce, especially when compared to the ubiquitous Plain Edge, and this is an appealing example.
Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex Jeff Kierstead, November 1993.
