Breen-1294, Baker-34 variety, Single Stars, Plain Edge.
One of the finest known specimens of an issue which was intentionally weakly struck to simulate wear and encourage acceptance in commerce.
And while the majority of these pieces show little central detail, this example is relatively sharp, with as much of Washington’s shoulder epaulet visible as we have ever seen on this type.
Choice rich chocolate brown with traces of mint frost on the reverse and nothing in the way of post minting marks or defects.
Ex American Numismatic Rarities December 2005 sale of the Old Colony Collection, lot #112.
