Lot 41
1794 Talbot Allum & Lee Cent with New York Breen-1029. PCGS graded MS-66 Brown. Lustrous light olive and steel brown with generous traces of original mint color showing on both sides. The surfaces are satiny and offer outstanding eye appeal. Sharply struck except for minor weakness on the lower half of the standing figure and on the opposing details in the center of the ship. The best identifying mark is a small, subtle spot of darker toning just left of the base of the L in LIBERTY. Late die state with several clear die cracks on the reverse. This is Fuld die variety #2 for the type and is clearly superior to the Breen plate coin. Pop 1; none finer at PCGS .
Estimated Value $3,800 - 4,000.
