Losbeschreibung

Vlack Plate No New York Rarity 1794 Talbot, Allum, and Lee cent. Breen-1028, W-8560. No New York. VF-20 (PCGS). 146.7 grains. The key variety in the Talbot, Allum, and Lee series, a type that is always found with significant evidence of circulation. Dark chocolate brown with contrasting lighter brown devices. The surfaces are glossy, if not completely smooth, and the visual appeal is excellent for the grade. The die crack that descends into the right obverse field from MM of COMMERCE is common to this variety, though it is the reverse die without New York that makes this variety both notable and rare. This is the only rarity among the circulating TAL tokens and is almost always found in well circulated condition. PCGS has certified only 12 total specimens, just one in Mint State. Provenance: From the Archangel Collection. Earlier, from Stack’s, privately, July 1978. Earlier, New Netherlands Coin Company’s 51st Sale, June 1958, lot 174; Robert Vlack Collection; Pine Tree’s sale of the John Carter Brown Library Collection, May 1976, lot 831.
