Lot Description

“1789” Mott token. Breen-1022. Thick planchet, Plain edge. MS-62 (PCGS). 168.8 grains. Late die state. Boldly detailed and ideally centered on a short chunky planchet. Glossy chocolate brown with no significant post striking flaws, just a hint of trivial verdigris on the reverse. Every digit on the clock face is well struck and distinct, though the eagle is somewhat soft. The legend is complete on both sides and the eye appeal is excellent. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. PCGS# 603. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
