Description
Exceptional 1796 S-84 Cent, AU53
1796 1C Liberty Cap AU53 PCGS. S-84, B-5, R.3. In his photo book, United States Large Cents, 1795-1797, Bill Noyes grades this piece XF40 with no deductions, and states that it has Choice surfaces. Our own assessment is that it has the sharpness of XF45 with above average surfaces, arriving at the same final grade. Both sides have lovely chestnut-brown surfaces with a few minuscule marks, and with darker gray on the highpoints. Those who are familiar with the standards that Bill Noyes uses are aware that he rarely assigns Choice surfaces to any early cent. He records details on 198 individual 1796 Liberty Cap cents in his reference, but only calls 18 of those piece Choice. MRB XF40.Ex: F.D. Caldwell; Stack's (4/1988), lot 2096; Steinberg; Superior (9/1996), lot 1565.(Registry values: N4719)
