Lot Description

1793 Flowing Hair Cent. Wreath Reverse. S-10. Rarity-4. Vine and Bars Edge. VG-8 (PCGS). Pleasingly smooth in hand for the assigned grade, this appealing VG also offers bold outline definition to the central design elements and an even overlay of medium copper-brown patina. A loupe reveals microporosity to both sides, the peripheral devices somewhat soft, yet discernible at most viewing angles. Desirable circulated quality for the collector seeking a relatively affordable example of this one year design type from the inception of large cent production in the United States Mint. PCGS# 1347.
