1793 S-1 R7 (as a die state) Chain AMERI. Basal State-1 . Nice glossy chocolate brown. The planchet is smooth but this cent is heavily worn. A script “G” is neatly engraved into the center of the obverse and there are a few small, shallow planchet chips on the reverse. LIBER is visible, the portrait is faint but nearly complete, and faint hints of the tops of the 93 can be seen with just the right light angle. At least half the chain is visible and STATES is clear. Rare terminal die state, Breen state VI, with a strong cud break connecting TAT to the rim. This cent has decent eye appeal for a Basal State Chain Cent, and the cud break makes this cent quite special. Noyes photo #63288. Comes with a nice provenance.
