1C 1793 CHAIN AMERICA PCGS MS63BN

This is the first MS63BN Chain Cent from the recently sold Dan Holmes Collection. It is truly an amazing coin to behold! The Holmes pedigree is on the holder.

Any choice BU Chain Cent ranks as true numismatic royalty. This coin is a REAL MS63.

To start, the coin was struck on a very decent planchet. That means there is little to no porosity. The surfaces are smooth and problem free. Some light luster actually does remain in a glossy fashion. The color is a deeper original chocolate brown. There are NO spots or stains. Miss Liberty is surprisingly well struck and does stand out. The eye appeal is fabulous-keep in mind, this is one of the first coins our US Mint ever made 216 years ago!

PCGS 5, NGC 0, CAC 2. PCGS has only graded 3 coins higher-and they would cost you a heck of a lot more to buy-if they ever came around for sale. We got very lucky and caught a break on buying this coin. There was a second coin (one that we bought with partners) which came out of an NGC MS64 BN holder we bought for $400,000.00. There are NO auction records for any MS63’s. However, an MS62BN sold in a Heritage 2008 sale for $253,000.00. We do strongly believe that one day soon, as the market regains real momentum, these will be $500,000.00 plus coins. Opportunity knocks loud for anyone who has ever really desired a CHOICE CHAIN CENT!

Legend Numismatics is pleased to own and offer this grand numismatic treasure to our friends.
