Breen-1142, with Wreath variety.
An interesting issue described by Walter Breen in his gigantic Encyclopedia as "About 6 known?". Not quite; our own proprietary research reveals that this is actually an R-6 with 25 or so traced specimens.
And, unlike many survivors, this is a totally original example, rich gray with some well blended-in ancient tin pest as often seen on colonial era tokens struck in this temperamental metal.
A collectible piece with a great pedigree, and quite possibly the most affordable PCGS certified example of this issue you’ll find.
Ex Stack’s December 1983 sale of the landmark Roper Collection, lot #174.
