Description
1793 S-1, B-1 Chain Cent, VF35
AMERI. Reverse
1793 1C Chain, AMERI., S-1, B-1, R.4, VF35 PCGS. The Chain
cents were the first coins struck at the U.S. Mint as the
Philadelphia facility began production of copper coinage in 1793.
The Chain cents were coined in March 1793, and the AMERI. variety
is considered the first of five Chain cent die varieties. This
spectacular example is not your typical Chain cent. The olive-brown
surfaces are smooth and pleasing, while a glass reveals a few faint
scratches on the obverse. An obverse rim bruise is evident at 3
o'clock, and a smaller rim bruise is noted at 10 o'clock on the
reverse. Otherwise, this piece is problem-free. Our EAC grade Fine
12.From The Washington Spring Collection.
