1796 S-90 R5+ Liberty Cap NGC graded VF30Glossy dark olive brown and steel on the devices with frosty lighter brown in the fields and protected areas. Mostly smooth but there is a collection of tiny planchet chips at the left wreath ribbon (as struck) and two small pits at the rim over AM. A minor beveled planchet clip over the second T in STATES is a good identifying feature of this cent. Nicely struck EDS with a nearly inverted reverse (struck head-to-head rather than head-to-foot) as often seen on this rare variety. The date is bold and the legends are strong except for some weakness at OF due to planchet chipping. Called CC#8 in the Bland and Noyes census lists, Noyes photo #31853. A nice mid-grade example of a rare variety than usually comes in very low grade.Certificate Number: 2038608-001Pedigree: Ex David Lynch (San Jose Coin Shop) 12/15/1993-Del Bland-Jack H.
