Description
Difficult Sheldon-2 1793 Chain Cent, Fine 12 PCGS
1793 Chain 1C AMERICA Fine 12 PCGS. S-2, High R-4. The Wide Date obverse, which was also in use for the famous Sheldon-1 AMERI variety. An attractive medium brown example that has a slight but consistent olive hue on the obverse, while the reverse field is slightly deeper in color, which contrasts well with the legends and chain device. Nicely detailed, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is fully legible as is LIBERTY and the date. Liberty's profile and eye are clear, and some hair definition is present. The surfaces are minutely granular but are noticeably devoid of detrimental marks, a rim nick at 8 o'clock on the obverse is barely worthy of mention. Other than NC-1, Sheldon-2 is the rarest Chain Cent die pairing.(#1341) (Registry values: N2998)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 223F, PCGS# 1341, GSID# 1213)
