Description
1837 Feuchtwanger Three Cent Token, Low-118, MS65
Tied for the Finest of its Kind
1837 Feuchtwanger Three Cents, Low-118, HT-263, W-NY-480-65j,
R.4, MS65 NGC. Feuchtwanger's composition (German silver),
reeded edge. Ex: Boyd-Ford. This example and another from the Ford
Collection are likely the two finest known examples of the variety,
and the cataloger of the Ford tokens wrote: "There will be spirited
debate as to whether this or the one above is really the finest
known." The two tokens brought identical prices in the Ford
auction; thus, we conclude that they are tied for the best in
existence. All design elements are boldly rendered, with brilliant
luster that accompanies lovely light gold and iridescent toning.
The surfaces of this Gem are virtually flawless.Ex: F.C.C. Boyd; John J. Ford, Jr. (Stack's, 6/2004), lot 212.
From The Robert A. Schuman, MD Collection.
