Undated (ca. 1793-1795) Kentucky Token. W-8810. Rarity-5. Copper. LANCASTER Edge. AU-58 (PCGS). A satiny and smooth example with hard, tight surfaces that are just a whisper away from full Mint State preservation. Indeed, both sides exhibit virtually full striking detail that is nowhere less than sharp. A subtle marbling of handsome steel-olive, autumn-brown and golden-copper patina rounds out an impressive list of attributes for this endearing piece. Whitman-8810 offered here is a scarce variety of the Kentucky token, as most examples in numismatic hands are Plain Edge pieces of the W-8800 attribution. PCGS has mounted the reverse up in the holder. PCGS# 623. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
