"1789" Mott Token. Rulau-E NY 610, Breen-1020. Thick Planchet. Plain

Exceptional Early Die State Mott Token "1789" Mott Token. Rulau-E NY 610, Breen-1020. Thick Planchet. Plain Edge. MS-63 BN (NGC). About as detailed as a Mott token type coin could be, struck from an early state of the dies with no break at the upper left of the clock nor swelling at centers. The clock face is bold and well defined, the eagle and shield are nicely detailed, and the centering is ideal. Obverse and reverse are glossy and frosty medium brown with strong eye appeal. Some light hairlines are noted on the reverse, speck of verdigris seen on the letter L in JEWELRY, and some natural planchet laminations and striations are visible under the eagle. Handsome and well preserved, an excellent example of the type. Provenance: From the Winslet Collection. Earlier from Heritage's Long Beach Signature Auction of June 2016, lot 3018, as PCGS MS-64 BN. PCGS# 603. NGC ID: 2B5K. Click here for certification details from NGC.

Estimate:£0.74
