- New York--New York. 1837 H. Crossman. HT-244, Low-113, W-NY-360-15a. Rarity-2. Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-64 BN (PCGS). Medal alignment. This is a satiny and smooth near-Gem with most design elements boldly defined. The eagle's neck in the center of the obverse is flatly struck, typical of the variety. That side of the token exhibits dominant steely-copper patina that yields to a splash of lighter golden-brown at the left border. The reverse is evenly patinated in medium brown with glints of original pinkish-apricot color along the upper right border. This is a moderately scarce HT number in Mint State, the present example far finer than the About Uncirculated Dice-Hicks specimen, and also superior to the primary Ford piece cataloged as Uncirculated. Sure to appeal to specialists. Provenance: Ex Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, November 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
