<p>[QUOTE="johnmilton, post: 3642046, member: 101855"]Here is the 1794 Cent that I currently have in my collection. It is a Sheldon 21, and it came from the Dan Holmes Collection. PCGS graded it MS-62, Brown, which it isn't. My grade is AU-55 and Bill Noyes, who is the toughtest grader I know, graded it AU-50 and the 7th finest known.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]977782[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]977783[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an off-angle shot which shows the luster and design detail more fully.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]977784[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing that really strikes me about these coins is that they are so beautiful and elegant for a piece that was only worth a cent.
