1793 S-12 Liberty Cap Electrotype Copy VF35. Glossy light olive brown and chocolate with a couple peeps of very faded red on the reverse. The surfaces are a bit uneven on most of the obverse and there are some very faint hairline scratches on the portrait, but the copper shell is intact with none of the base metal showing through. In addition the edge lettering has been added, although it is weakly impressed. None of the seam shows on the edge. This copy was made using the ANS VF35 example of the S-12 variety as a model. Nice eye appeal in spite of the uneven surface on the obverse. Estimate Value $500 - UP
