- Undated (1833) I Take the Responsibility. HT-70A, Low-171, DeWitt-CE 1834-16, W-10-320a. Rarity-3. Gilt Copper. Plain Edge. 28.5 mm. MS-65 (PCGS).
Coin alignment. This is an exquisite piece with full, bright gilding to both sides. Otherwise satin to softly frosted in texture, the surfaces reveal modest semi-reflectivity in the fields when viewed with a strong, direct light source. Fully struck with razor sharp detail from the rims to the centers. Both sides are nice for the assigned grade. An inconsequential obverse spot within the border beading at 3 o'clock and an equally trivial mark beneath the right foot of the letter M in FIRMNESS on the reverse confirm this piece's provenance to our (Bowers and Merena's) September 1985 sale. Struck on a pre-gilded planchet, as issued, and undeniably among the nicest examples of this HT number available to today's collectors. Finer than both the Dice-Hicks and Ford specimens, cataloged as Uncirculated and Choice Uncirculated, respectively.
Provenance: From our (Bowers and Merena's) Four Memorable Collections sale, September 1985, lot 3261; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
