1793 S-1 R4 Chain AMERI. PCGS Genuine, Fine Details, Damaged. Sharpness VF20 but there are numerous contact marks scattered over the obverse, including a half dozen small dents or planchet voids, nicks, and fine scratches. In addition there is a thin diagonal planchet fissure from just off the tip of the nose down to the field before the neck. The reverse has only minor contact marks but there are traces of shallow reddish chocolate brown scale in protected areas on an otherwise smooth planchet. Glossy medium steel brown and light chocolate. Nicely struck EDS, Breen state I. The date and legends are complete and strong.
