1793 S1 Electrotype
R?
Chain Cent, AMERI. reverse, ELECTROTYPE COPY
AU
Choice example of the S1 with nice light tan color and glossy surfaces, there are a couple obverse spots where the base metal is showing through, and a dull reverse ding at the right side of the chain links
$999
1793 S5
R4
Wreath, Vine and Bars Edge
F15
The only wreath cent with large LIBERTY and large date like the chain cents, this is a nice mottled brown F15 with some scattered light marks, net to F12, it's been a long time since I have owned a nice S5, and this one's pretty nice
$7,500
1793 S8
R3
Wreath, Vine & Bars edge
AG3
Just an average coin, very strong details for an AG3 but the planchet is a little rough and brassy, some of the date can be made out
$999
1793 S9
R2
Wreath, Vine & Bars edge
ANACS VF20
Old ANACS Photograde as VF20, the planchet has been clipped at K2 and there are some small rim bumps beneath the clip, the details are strong and the surfaces and color are nice, net F15, late die state with reverse crack, not perfect but still a really nice coin and about half of what a problem-free coin would cost
$5,999
1793 S10
R4
Wreath, Vine & Bars edge
G5
Nice G5 with choice color but there are some light scratches on the obverse that are quite intentional and obvious, net AG3, ex-Tom Reynolds
$999
1793 S11A
R4+
Wreath, Vine & Bars edge
PCGS VF20
Way above average with excellent surfaces and color, no visible defects, from my personal coin collection
$12,500 - OUT
1793 S11C
R3-
Wreath, Lettered Edge
Nice details including a full strong date, there is some very minor roughness not bad enough to keep PCGS from grading the coin, this is the second time I have owned this coin, and I am the one that sent it to PCGS, hence I am certain that this coin is S11C as opposed to S11B
$3,500
1793 S11C
R3-
Wreath, Lettered Edge
PCGS F12
From my personal collection, nearly choice for the grade with perfect color, bold details, and outstanding eye appeal, the only detractions are some light rim bumps visible in the photos, the details look like the raw photos, but the color looks like the photo in the slab
$7,500 - OUT
1793 S16 Electrotype
R?
Liberty Cap
EF
Nice electrotype copy of the Sheldon 16, this coin is much nicer than my horrible photo
$999
1794 S18B
R4
Head of 1793
F12+
F12+ but with some very light scratches, net VG10, otherwise this would be exceptional for a Head of 1793, ex-Stacks 09/05 lot 452 where it sold as F12 for $2587.50
$3,999 - HOLD
1794 S41
R3
Head of 1794

Reverse die cracks, no date
$99

VG7

$1,850
1794 S48
R5-
STARRED REVERSE!
PCGS FR2
Expertly recolored with excellent light brown color and nice eye appeal, the obverse is virtually VG8 with everything readable including the date and some lower hair details, the reverse is weaker but many stars are clear to the naked eye, probably as nice as you will find in a PCGS FR2
$15,000 - OUT
1794 S53
R6
Head of 1794
F12
Sharp F12 but with a heavily corroded reverse, net AG3+, a very rare R6 variety and this is the only one I have handled in over 10 years of business
net $3,350*
1794 S55
R2
Head of 1794
FR2
Grellman card as FR2, the date is not visible, but don't worry - somebody has etched it onto the cap!  The real appeal of this coin is that it has a rotated reverse, which is actually fairly rare for 1794 liberty cap large cents
$199
1794 S55
R2
Head of 1794
PCGS VF35
Really nice coin for the grade, photo taken prior to PCGS grading, now in a new blue PCGS VF35 holder
$3,350
1795 S75
R3
Lettered Edge
PCGS VG10
An incredibly attractive coin with choice color and surfaces, the only detraction are some light rim bumps, these 1795 lettered edge coins are under-rated and quite hard to find this pretty
$1,250
1795 S80
R?

Electrotype copy of the ANS-Breen-Penny Whimsy coin, ex-EAC 2007 lot 161

net $1,750*
1796 S92
R3
Reverse of 1796
VG7
VG7 and a really nice coin for the grade, strong central details that approach F12 but the obverse peripheries are a little weak, really nice color and surfaces for a 1796 DB
net $899*

1796 S116
R5-
Reverse of 1796
