Fine condition. Orange covers are a bit chipped. Priced in pencil. This was Sylvester Crosby's personal copy. Crosby was known more for his Colonials and Washingtonia, but he also had an outstanding collection of 1793 cents including the discovery coins for S-12 and S-15. Surprisingly these cents were described using Frossard numbers rather than the Crosby numbers that were first used in the 1869 AJN article that was published with J. N. T. Levick's famous plate of 1793 cents.
