Uncirculated Copper Wreath Below
Rhode Island Ship Token

1778-1779 TOKEN Rhode Island Ship Token, Wreath Below, Copper MS60 Brown PCGS. Breen-1141. A magnificently detailed Mint State example that has dark brown toning and generally smooth surfaces. A small edge flaw at 4 o'clock is of mint origin. The wreath below the ship was added to the die to replace the VLUGTENDE legend, which unintentionally implied that Admiral Howe's flagship fled the scene. Listed on page 48 of the 2010 Guide Book. Population: 2 in 60 Brown, 3 finer (6/09).
