- Massachusetts--Taunton and Boston. 1835 John J. Adams. HT-181, Low-300, W-MA-320-10a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-63 BN (PCGS).
Coin alignment. A richly original example with marbled golden-brown and steely-copper patina on both sides. Satiny surfaces are hard, tight and free of significant blemishes. Sharply struck apart from the typical softness to the boar's body, although here the inscription CASH FOR BRISTLES is near-fully legible. Although a handful of nice Mint State examples exist for this HT number, including the present example, the Dice-Hicks specimen, and the Ralph A. Edson specimen, Fine and VF survivors are far more plentiful. With an above average strike, this lovely Choice Uncirculated token will certainly appeal to astute collectors.
Provenance: Ex Leslie Heilbronner, December 9, 1992; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, October 24, 2013; Steve Hayden, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
