Description
'1783' Baker-3A Silver Restrike, PR58
Washington & Independence Cent
Far Rarer Than the Copper Versions
1783 1C Washington & Independence Cent, Draped Bust, No Button,
Silver Restrike PR58 PCGS. Baker-3A, W-10380, R.6. Engrailed
edge. The Large 3, No Button (on date and drapery, respectively)
style identifies the mid-19th century silver restrikes produced by
W.S. Lincoln, although there is also die rust obvious on President
Washington's neck, suggesting a restrike. This is an extremely
attractive, lightly circulated example of the silver proof, with
pale rose hues competing against tinges of gold and aqua. These
pieces are far rarer than their copper counterparts. Listed on page
80 of the 2013 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2B6U, PCGS# 688, Greysheet# 337)
