1794 Liberty Cap Cent. S-44. Rarity-1. Head of 1794. AU Details--Obverse Tooled (NGC). Deep golden-brown surfaces appear glossy and smooth to the unaided eye. Some scattered marks appear under low magnification, most significant a series of shallow old scratches among ERTY, tip of bust smoothed, hairlines re-engraved in places, no marks of measure on the reverse other than a few light ticks. Diagnostic die cracks on obverse at date and upward through hair curls to cap, and on the reverse at the rim between S and O to the N in ONE. A choice specimen that might very well be one of the finest filler examples of the date one is ever apt to encounter.<p> From the Padula Collection.
