Attractive frosty light brown with subtle hints of reddish chocolate on both sides. The surfaces are smooth and the only defects are a very light rim bruise left of the lowest curl, a small puff of darker brown toning at the junction of the pole and neck, and a puff of darker reddish brown toning right of the T in CENT. The date is strong, the legends are clear, and the edge lettering is bold. MDS, Breen state I late. There is the faintest hint of a bulge from the rim to the upper part of the chin but no trace of die rust in the left side of the wreath. Our grade is VF25. Bland says VF30 and CC#2 in his revised census. Noyes says VF25 and tied for CC#4, his photo #61952. A wonderful example of this tough Head of 1793 variety, and it comes with a great provenance. The attribution is noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label.
