1791 Washington Large Eagle Cent with Lettered Edge Breen-1206 NGC graded MS64 Brown. Very attractive glossy chocolate brown with subtle overtones of light bluish steel in the fields and protected areas. Very sharply struck with hard, slightly reflective fields on both sides. Close to gem status if not for microscopic hairlines in the fields. Still a great example of this popular Washington Cent. Listed on page 81 in the "Redbook."
Estimated Value $1,500-UP.
The NGC label indicates this piece is from the S. M. Damon collection The Arden Collection.
