- 1834 Running Boar. HT-10, Low-9, DeWitt-CE 1834-9, W-10-210b. Rarity-3. Brass. Plain Edge. Thick Planchet. 28.5 mm. MS-62 (PCGS).
Coin alignment. This is a beautiful piece, solidly in the Mint State category with full striking detail and intense satin luster. Dominant antique brass patina on both sides is enhanced by subtle pink and powder blue undertones, as well as modest semi-reflectivity in the fields. Free of mentionable blemishes with outstanding visual appeal. Bowers, in his 2015 Guide Book of Hard Times Tokens, describes both HT-10 and HT-10A as being on thin planchets, although this piece is on a thick planchet, as described for HT-10 in both Rulau and Sullivan (DeWitt). This is one of the most frequently encountered of all Hard Times tokens, examples available in almost any grade desired. The token offered here is a lovely Brilliant Uncirculated survivor that would do nicely in an advanced collection.
Provenance: Ex B. Chance; Stephen L. Tanenbaum estate, 2013. Collector tag with attribution and provenance notes included.
