Description
1723 PENNY Rosa Americana Penny AU58 NGC. Breen-120, Martin 2.21-Ea.3. According to Breen this is the only 1723 penny variety to feature 24 pellets inside of the rose on the reverse. He calls it an "extremely rare" prototype. Sydney Martin's forthcoming book on the Rosa Americana series should shed some light on Breen's comments, which perhaps overstate the rarity. Traces of light brown in the protected areas accent the deep mahogany patina that covers both sides. This well-detailed specimen has no marks of any significance. Listed on page 41 of the 2010 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2ASR, PCGS# 125, Greysheet# 40)
