1794 S-22 R1 PCGS graded MS63 Brown.Very attractive glossy tan and golden brown with darker steel brown toning on the highpoints. Puffs of darker steel brown toning are scattered over the reverse. Frosty luster shows in the fields and protected areas on both sides and this cent has mint state eye appeal in spite of a touch of rub on the highpoints of the portrait. The surfaces are perfectly smooth and the only notable marks are a pair of nicks high on the cheek and a small planchet chip on the rim at the first A in AMERICA (as struck). M-LDS, Breen state VII. A fine die crack reaches from the rim through the 4 to the truncation but goes no farther and the "Mounds" on the reverse are well advanced. Called EF45 net EF40 Average Plus and tied for CC#9 in the Noyes census, his photo #34041. Our grade is EF45. This variety, while relatively common in lower grades, is unknown in true Mint State by EAC standards. This is certainly one of the better ones, and it comes with an important provenance. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. Pop 2; tied for the finest examples graded at both services for the variety.Value $17,500 - UP
