1793 Chain Cent, Fair 2
AMERI., Sheldon-1

1793 1C Chain, AMERI., S-1, B-1, R.4, Fair 2 PCGS. The chain is clear, UNITED is readable, and much of AMERI is evident. Several letters in the denomination are apparent, including the diagnostic position of the E in ONE relative to the chain. The obverse displays greater wear, but Liberty's profile and bust tip emerge beneath a strong light. The lower obverse has a few faint thin marks, but the tan and golden-brown surfaces are otherwise problem-free. Our EAC grade Poor 1.
