1794 Liberty Cap Cent. S-72. Rarity-2. Head of 1795. VF-35 BN (NGC).Satiny deep charcoal-copper surfaces reveal vivid lilac-blue and antique gold undertones as the coin dips into a light. The obverse is lightly pitted overall, the reverse hard and tight. Marks are minimal for both sides, bold to sharp definition to the major design elements further enhancing this coins appeal for <em>Guide Book</em> variety collectors. The year 1794 is a veritable playground for variety collectors. While the "Red Book" lists six distinct varieties for the date, serious collectors know there are three score and more individual die marriages for the date, as early U.S. Mint dies were all created individually by hand. There are three distinct head styles among the 60+ varieties, including the scarce Head of 93, the Head of 94, and the challenging Head of 95, offered here. Noyes Die State C/B.
