The Boston Time Capsule 1793 Large Cent is a CHAIN

Click on the "Lost Treasure of the Founding Fathers" video

They start showing some of the coins/artifacts at 1:43 & following ...... you can barely see the edge of the Chain cent at ~1:56-57

    Almost 5 minutes of blah, blah, blah and only 10 seconds of the coins. image

    The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    The half second video on the one third of chain cent cannot reveal whether it is S-1, 2,3, or S-4 image
    Also, it seems all coins have be "conserved image"

    It's not an S-1 because the left end of the fraction bar points
    to "M" on rev. A and on the others the bar points to "E" on rev
    B .
    We'll have to wait 'til they show us more,,,if they ever do!
