1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent. Fuld-4, W-8590. Rarity-2. With NEW YORK. Small & on Reverse. Copper. Lettered Edge. MS-64 BN (PCGS).
157.8 grains. An impressively sharp, near Gem example with rich mahogany-brown color and hardly any blemishes to note. Martin called this coin "Ch. Proof" and it does indeed display the early die state, full, meticulous strike, and reflective luster of those 1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee cents often considered Proof strikes and certified as such. Either way this is an outstanding coin to represent the type.
PCGS# 634.
From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex Lawrence R. Stack Collection, November 2006.
