(1792-94) Kentucky Token, MS64 Red
Plain Edge, W-8800

(1792-94) CENT Kentucky Token, Plain Edge, MS64 Red PCGS. Breen-1155, W-8800, R.1. Lustrous and well defined with minor contact marks. The Plain Edge is more common overall than the LANCASTER edge, but in mint Red the plain edge is many times rarer. PCGS has certified just two Red coins, both in MS64 Red -- a number that has not changed in two decades (3/26). We last handled a Red example nearly two decades ago in 2007. These pieces were engraved in England by John Gregory Hancock and struck by Westwood's mint in Birmingham. The top star is marked K, for Kentucky, and the right star on the upper second row is marked V, for Virginia. The remaining stars are each marked for one of the other thirteen states. Listed on page 42 of the 2026 Guide Book.
Ex: Palm Beach Signature (Heritage, 11/2004), lot 5033.
