Auction 366 | Lot 5054 » Colonials

1791 1C Washington Small Eagle Cent MS63 Brown NGC. Baker-16, R.3. The Small Eagle Cent is one of the few Washington pieces that actually shows a denomination. Designed in England by John Gregory Hancock, these pieces were proposed as federal contract coinage. Upon seeing an example, Washington rejected the coin as "monarchial." However, many pieces were given out to Cabinet officials, senators, and representatives. Eventually, many of the 1500 pieces struck circulated as coinage. This well struck mahogany and tan-brown Cent has a few faint pinscratches in the field, but is free from contact marks. Listed on page 65 of the 2005 Guide Book. (PCGS# 705)

1877 1C PR65 Brown PCGS. The deep brown patina is accented by an almost navy blue in the fields and magenta in the protected areas.

1652 SHILNG Oak Tree Shilling VF30 PCGS. Noe-5, Crosby 2-D, R.2. 69.4 grains. Pearl-gray hues dominate this desirable Massachusetts silver piece, although hints of olive color reside in protected areas. Die breaks (as made) before and after the A in AN DOM. The oak tree has wispy pinscratches near its northeast corner, and the borders are irregular as made. The obverse is slightly off-center, with the legends below the oak tree mostly but not completely on the flan. The eye appeal is very strong overall for the grade, as the oak tree and the majority of the legends are bold. Listed on page 24 of the 2005 Guide Book. (PCGS# 20)

1652 SHILNG Oak Tree Shilling MS62 NGC. Noe-4, R.4. 74.6 grains per Hain catalog; 74.8 grains per NGC. Coin number 35 in the 1991 ANS Exhibition of Massachusetts silver coinage. This is a pleasing example with good centering on the obverse and excellent centering on the reverse. The surfaces have attractive medium gray color with hints of lilac and gold. The obverse legend is nearly complete, and is only slightly cropped near 6 o'clock. The reverse legend is full. A minor rim disturbance at 12 o'clock on the obverse positively identifies this as the Hain specimen. In the Hain catalog, the cataloger for Stack's noted "The presently offered coin is superior to the Norweb piece, as well as the Stearns, NN 60th, Picker's (which had a bit more obverse lettering showing, which is why he kept it), and the MHS coin." This is the usual die state for the variety with minor reverse die cracks, most prominent near ND-stop-A. This is an outstanding example for the advanced colonial specialist.
Ex: Spink & Son (London); Vlack Collection; Hain Collection (Stack's, 1/2002), lot 19. (PCGS# 20)
