Description
1796 S-116 Draped Bust large cent, Reverse of 1795/1796 with Single Leaves, R5-. From an old-time collector who purchased the coin from Doug Bird on 01/01/02; Doug's insert with $3,695 remains with the coin. Comes with another envelope whose writing I recognize but can't identify, where it says "Ex-Superior's RSB2:162 1/27/97 $120," and some notes that says DNB 20 net 12 and Noyes 10 net 10. Now authenticated and graded by PCGS as VF25 with "S-116" attribution on the label. Frankly, I think PCGS has it more accurately graded than anybody. Certainly VF25 details with rich dark chocolate brown color. There is a well-hidden scuff running from the left of the eye into the hair, but another one at the back of the hair, plus a tiny chip between F-A on the reverse. Otherwise this coin does not have any circulation marks out of line for the grade, and the color shows a nice semi-cameo with dark chocolate brown fields beneath medium brown devices. PCGS Price Guide value is $4,000 for a common variety, but this S-116 is certainly NOT common, currently still considered to be R5-. PCGS certification# 35834.25/57673770 with "S-116" attribution listed on the PCGS label. On the PCGS website, this is the highest-graded S-116 for variety #35834, with this coin prominently featured as the #1 coin for the variety, followed by one VF20 and one F15. So if you are working on the PCGS Registry Set by Sheldon variety, this one should be the best available?
