Description

1787 CENT Massachusetts Cent, R. 3-G, W-6090, R.3 -- Rev Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. Unc. Die alignment: 180?. Smooth surfaces and a firm strike combine to make a pleasing Massachusetts cent, though the reverse has been artificially colored -- a pity, since the surfaces are so well preserved that minor die adjustments and other markings can easily be examined under magnification. Listed on page 61 of the 2018 Guide Book. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
