1792 Disme in Silver - Just graded by PCGS! 1/13/15 Important Update in first post

1/13/15 Update
Unfortunately a Stack's Bowers representative told me at FUN that after consulting with many experts - the coin is an Electrotype and has been removed from the PCGS holder and the Kendal collection sale
First example of Judd 9 graded by PCGS!
Not my coin.
PCGS AU 55!

I can't recall seeing a silver ever, but the example of J-10 (The copper version of this coin) in the Smithsonian is a beast, one of the highlights of my vault trip this summer!

To date, this was one of the highlights of the boards for me. Thank you again for sharing

<< <i>There were previously three known examples of Judd-9. This does not match any of them. I am guessing this is the Kendall Foundation coin. I would like to know the certification number. >>

Lol, not mine either...

I'd like to hear the story on how that scratch got on the cheek of Lady Liberty.
This is the Kendall Foundation coin, to be sold by StacksBowers in March 2015. It's a totally new example. It was acquired privately from Stack's in June 1975 on the same day as the magnificent Birch cent.
It will be offered with 6 NE shillings, an NE sixpence (a real one!), a literal fistful of Willow Trees, a Silver Center cent, well over 100 pieces of additional Mass silver, other notable colonial rarities (many plated in Crosby and other standard references), an original CSA half, and some other fun things. The collection contained one certified coin when I first saw the group over the summer. One.
But all the good coins are known and nearly all are already slabbed, right?

If I have a 1850 coin then is this considered a modern coin? LOL
BTW - all outstanding coins simply magnificent and can't wait to see those coins from the set.

Can you please take a family picture with all of them together? That would be a sight to see. A handful of NE shillings would be incredible.

Is there a photo that shows off the toning more?
Awesome coin!

Looks like the electrotype may have been made from the following disme in copper that's plated in the Breen Proof book. Notice the contact marks in the reverse fields. Maybe someone has a better image of this coin?
