- New York--New York. 1837 Merchants Exchange. HT-291, Low-95, W-NY-760-10a. Rarity-1. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.1 mm. MS-62 BN (PCGS). Coin alignment, with a slight clockwise offset. With plenty of bright pinkish-rose color remaining on both sides, this premium quality example is very close to an RB designation. Mottled gray-brown patina dominates the appearance, and the surfaces have a smooth satin texture that reveals no detracting marks. Light carbon in and around the central reverse appears to be the only impediment to a Choice Uncirculated grade. Sharply struck. When it comes to HT-291, Mint State survivors such as this figure prominently in advanced Hard Times token cabinets. Provenance: Ex Charles E. Kirtley, March 3, 1978; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. The plate token for the variety in the 2015 Whitman Guide Book of Hard Times Tokensby Q. David Bowers. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
