Description
Full Red MS66 1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent
1794 1C Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent, NEW YORK MS66 Red PCGS. Breen-1029. This is the most extraordinary TAL cent we have ever seen. This is the only full red example graded by either service in any grade. The surfaces are bright and show uniform, unmellowed color over both sides with sparkling, semiprooflike fields. Sharply struck throughout. The curious part of the full red and high grade of this TAL is the date. This is a 1794, not a 1795. According to Breen's Encyclopedia, "Those dated 1795 were formerly considered rare, but a hoard found in Britain after WW II yielded many Unc. examples, mostly brown to light olive, fewer original red." Population: 1 in 66 Red, 0 finer (11/08). Listed on page 72 of the 2009 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 636, Greysheet# 277)
