1794 S-39 R6 Head of 1794 PCGS graded F12Glossy medium olive brown and steel. The surfaces are smooth except for a few minor planchet chips on both sides, and there are only a few contact marks. The notable marks are a sharp vertical nick between the B & E in LIBERTY and a thin diagonal nick on the jaw above the throat. Possibly unique terminal die state, Breen state III late, with a very strong die crack arcing from the rim under the 1 in the denominator to the rim between the I & T in UNITED. The section of die outlined by the crack has started to shift outward, and the dentils between the U and fraction are clearly shorter as a result. In addition the dies have become out of proper axial alignment (the die faces are no longer parallel) causing the bottom of the obverse and opposing top of the reverse to be weakly struck while everything else is normal. As a result the details on the upper half of the obverse and lower half of the reverse are significantly better than the overall grade. This piece is plated in the Noyes reference to illustrate the terminal die state. Graded VG10 net VG7 and tied for CC#10 for the variety in the Noyes census, his photo #27862. Bland says VG7 as well and tied for CC#11. Our grade is VG8. This is the finest of the die state in both census lists, and to the best of our knowledge this is the only example known with this very strong die crack. A wonderful cent for the collector of die states. And it comes with a nice provenance. The attribution and Trollan Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.Certificate Number: 35582.12/36048764Pedigree: Ex Hollinbeck Kagin Coin Co., 10/11/1966-Herbert A.
