1789 Mott Token. Breen-1021, Rulau-E NY 611. Rarity-7. Thin Planchet. Plain Edge. AU-58 (PCGS). OGH.This is very much the scarcer plain edge variety of the Mott token, represented here by a sharp and inviting early die state example. The strike is nicely centered on both sides, the eagles plumage crisp and the grandfather clock bold apart from softness to the face. A bit soft around the reverse periphery, as well, yet sharp elsewhere. A small dig in the lower right reverse field is the only mark of note. Pleasing gray-brown patina overall, this endearing example is sure to catch the eye of specialists.
