Lot Description

1795 Liberty Cap Cent. S-76B. Rarity-1. Plain Edge. AU-55 (PCGS). Lovely reddish-brown patina blankets both sides of this smooth, tight, and satiny example. The strike is not perfectly centered, the denticulation scant along the upper left borders, but all devices are boldly to sharply defined to explain the desirable Choice AU grade from PCGS. Free of mentionable blemishes apart from a couple of trivial edge nicks on the reverse outside the letters UN in UNITED, this is an endearing high grade type candidate from the Liberty Cap large cent series. Noyes Die State A. PCGS# 35723. NGC ID: 223T. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
