Description
1791 Washington Cent, MS65 Brown
Small Eagle, GW-17
1791 Washington Small Eagle Cent MS65 Brown PCGS. Baker-16,
W-10630, GW-17, R.3. The well-made 1791 Washington cents come
in two major varieties, the Large Eagle and Small Eagle. The Small
Eagle variety is slightly scarcer. They were struck by the private
Westwood Mint in Birmingham, England, in an attempt to obtain a
coinage contract with the United States, as that country had yet to
establish a mint of its own. The present Gem displays ample
glimmers of mint red, though the coin is dominated by olive-brown
toning. Listed on page 47 of the 2026 Guide Book.
Population: 12 in 65 (5 in 65+) Brown, 4 finer (7/25).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2B73, PCGS# 705, Greysheet# 255)
