详细说明

Undated (Circa 1793-1795) Kentucky Token. W-8805. Copper. Engrailed Edge. AU-58 (PCGS). 126.1 grains. Breen-1162, D&amp;H-59b, Lancashire. Deep golden-tan with boldly rendered devices and a scattering of tiny marks, with the most noticeable of those in the field at the cuff of the obverse hand.&nbsp;Faint die crack just beginning at the hand and scroll. All told, still choice in appearance to the unaided eye. A fairly rare variety that is seldom offered for sale; we see the engrailed edge (diagonally reeded) style offered here only infrequently. One for the specialists.<br /> <br /> The Craige envelope calls this variety "RRR," the British equivalent of a Rarity-6+ or higher rating.
