EARLY CENTS AUCTIONS



1793 S-8 Wreath Cent F12+ . Glossy medium chocolate with lighter brown in protected areas, especially on the obverse. Looks smooth to the unaided eye but there is very fine roughness in the fields and protected areas. No verdigris and the only notable mark is a light scrape on the rim left of the lower curls. M-LDS, Breen state III early. The bisecting crack and wave on the reverse is clear. This cent has the eye appeal of a slightly higher grade. 

LOT 8

From the Fred H. Borcherdt Collection

1793 S-9 R2 Wreath Cent VG10 . Toned a very attractive glossy medium brown and light chocolate with no trace of roughness or verdigris. Unfortunately there are 3-4 obvious rim bumps on both sides, the strongest one off the lowest curls. The date and legends are strong, the details consistent with a VF20 grade. Nicely struck EDS, Breen state I, before any die cracks.
