1793 Flowing Hair Cent. Chain Reverse. S-4. Rarity-3+. AMERICA. With Periods. VF Details--Repaired (PCGS).Readily discerned by the periods at the end of the word LIBERTY and the date, the Sheldon-4 variety of the perennial favorite Chain cent is scarce in any grade level and a coin that provides pride of ownership at any grade level. Both sides are warmly and evenly toned in antique dark brown copper-rose patina with splashes of brick-red. The hair tresses are sharply defined and highly detailed with individual hair strands clearly visible, suggesting a higher grade level. The reverse chain and denomination indicator is clean and sharp. The naturally smooth surfaces are interrupted only on the reverse with evidence of what appears to be tooling or smoothing around the words STATES OF, hence the qualifier on the insert. The remaining letters of the legend are clear with ample detail. This is a wholesome mid-grade example of the historically significant and ever popular Chain cent and a more than suitable representative of the nations first coinage.
