Lot 15
1793 S-8 R3- Wreath Cent, Vine & Bars Edge PCGS Genuine Good Details Planchet Flaw. Rather glossy steel brown and chocolate. The devices are smooth but fine roughness covers the fields and protected areas on both sides. No verdigris. Later die state with an obvious diagonal bulge through the center dot on the reverse. The 17 of the date is faint but the 93 is relatively clear, and the legends are nearly complete although some elements are weak. Struck on a flawed planchet that has a diagonal fissure across the obverse and a shallow delamination affecting the sprig and right half of the date (as struck). The Vine & Bars edge device is version (a), as always on S-8, S-9, and all Chain Cent die varieties. Our grade is AG3+. The attribution and Neiswinter provenance are noted on the PCGS label. Weight 186.8 grains. Estimate Value $1,750 - UP
