Lot Description

1787 Auctori Plebis Token. W-8770. Rarity-3. EF-40 (PCGS). Handsome medium brown surfaces with most major design elements bold. The obverse portrait is overall soft, typical of the type, and the upper right obverse peripheral letters and the bottom of the date on the reverse are off the flan due to a trivially off center strike. There is not a broad continuum of quality among surviving examples of this type, however, this is one of the nicer ones you are apt to see. Provenance: From the Collection of Larry L. Terrell. Acquired from Mary Sauvain, December 1993. PCGS# 601. NGC ID: 26XG. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
