Description
1794 Talbot, Allum & Lee Cent. Fuld-4, W-8590. Rarity-2. With NEW YORK. Small & on Reverse. Copper. Lettered Edge. MS-66 RB (NGC).
158.4 grains. This glorious upper end Gem really needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. It is a minimally toned example with plenty of vivid pinkish-rose color shining forth as the surfaces rotate under a light. The fields are noticeably reflective from a semi-prooflike finish, and they form a splendid backdrop to frosty, sharply impressed design elements. Both the striking quality and preservation are exceptional, making this a stellar type candidate from the first-year Talbot, Allum & Lee cent issue.
PCGS# 635. NGC ID: 2B5X.
Combined PCGS and NGC Population: 1; 0 finer in this category. A PCGS MS-66 RD is the only example certified in that category.
