- 1723 Rosa Americana Twopence. Martin 3.2-E.3, W-1334. Rarity-4. AU-55 (PCGS). 257.48 grains. This is a delightful example with dark walnut patina on the high points and bright, brassy luster surrounding the design elements. The surfaces are smooth and fully composed under scrutiny, conveying an attractive glossy complexion in-hand. Nothing but the most trivial abrasions show beneath a glass, and the strike is well aligned on each side. Just lightly worn and nicely defined for the variety. An exceptional example that is comparable in sharpness to the Craige specimen, though that piece was smoothed in the reverse field and softer near the rims. Provenance: From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68. PCGS# 128. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
