Description
(1688) American Plantations Token, AU58
Rare ET. HB. REX Variety, Newman 1-A
(1688) 1/24RL American Plantations Token, ET. HB. REX, AU58
PCGS. N. 1-A, W-1130, R.7. In 1688, Richard Holt secured a
royal patent to strike coins in tin alloy for England's American
colonies. Circa 1828, restrikes were made using the original dies.
Newman 1-A is classified as an original (1688) striking. It is the
sole die marriage of the rare ET. HB. REX Guide Book
variety, a diesinker's blunder since HIB (for Hibernia) was
intended. This is a partly lustrous piece with minimal marks and
only a single subtle spot above the front legs of the horse. Struck
several degrees off center toward 7:30. Listed on page 38 of the
2024 Guide Book. Population: 1 in 58, 2 finer (7/23).From The James E. Blake Collection of United States Colonial Coins & Tokens.
