Lot 585
1793 NC-1 Chain AMERICA Electrotype Copy MS63. Frosty "mint" red fading to light steel brown, more than half the red remaining. Essentially as made from the Penny Whimsy and Noyes plate coin. Unfortunately the two halves were not properly aligned so the "copy status" of this piece is obvious without a glass (or much knowledge for that matter). DWH #3410.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
Ex Jules Reiver estate (via Iona Reiver), 2007 EAC Sale, McCawley & Grellman Auctions 4/28/07:107.
