Lot 2541
1797. 10 stars left, 6 right. B-3, BB-71 Rarity 2. ICG graded Fine-15. Lightly toned with natural, even wear on the devices from its use in commerce. No injury to the rims (which is always advantageous), and bearing the desirable 1797 date. Although it is housed in a plastic slab, a friend of the cataloger calls these coins "finger coins" -- not as a derogatory term, but instead to describe their charm in holding in one's hand and flipping them over and over to see and to feel their historic connection to Early America.
Estimated Value $2,200 - 2,400.
