1779 Token Rhode Island Ship Token, Wreath Below, Silvered, XF45
PCGS. Betts-563, Breen-1141, W-1740. Ex: Sydney F. Martin
Collection. Betts-563 is the final Rhode Island Ship token variety,
distinguished by a wreath in the obverse exergue. Examples were
struck in brass (W-1740) and pewter (W-1745), but Breen notes,
"occasionally silvered." PCGS has certified just three examples as
silvered (11/23). The silvering is mostly intact but copper-toned
brass is exposed on the high points. The obverse is lightly
granular, and a few thin marks are scattered. Listed on page 47 of
the 2024 Guide Book.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 575, Greysheet# 390)
