Popis
Sharp 1793 Chain Cent
Sheldon-4 Variety With Periods
1793 Flowing Hair Cent. Chain Reverse. S-4, B-5. Rarity-3. AMERICA, With Periods. EF Details--Cleaned (PCGS).
An appealing coin for the assigned grade with warm, even, medium brown color. Indeed, both sides have retoned nicely, although the texture is a tad glossy, and there are also pinkish-gold undertones and faint hairlines that confirm the PCGS qualifier. Nicely detailed overall, there is even plenty of finer definition remaining within Liberty's hair. Breen Die State III.
The accepted mintage for the 1793 Chain cent as an issue is 36,103 coins. Mintage for the Sheldon-4 variety is estimated at more than 8,800 coins, which was achieved as part of three deliveries:
-March 8: 7,000 (includes S-4)
-March 9: 1,000 coins
-March 12: 5,578 coins
The extant population is 301 to 400 coins in all grades.
Exactly who discovered this die pairing is unknown, with credit perhaps due to Joseph Mickley, Edward Cogan or Dr. Montroville W. Dickeson. Regardless, this variety was known by the late 1850s, when numismatics as a hobby in the United States experienced its first big surge in popularity. Survivors remain popular for both type and variety purposes, and this more affordable EF is sharper than most. It is sure to find many eager buyers in today's highly competitive numismatic market.
