    @Dave99B Your ANACS chain is very nice! Strong date and nice β€œcirc cam”…
    I’m an American history buff, and I agree that chains have a very distinct cachet about them… early federal coins are my primary interest, and I particularly like well circulated, problem free early federal coins most of all. They just have a history and tell a story, and I feel like they have a direct connection to our founders. That’s very cool for a history geek like me.

    I’ve owned three of the other 1793 cents; both Wreath types, and the Liberty cap, but never a Chain.
    That and the 1799 will probably still be on my bucket list to my grave…

    Same. The1799 has also been on my list for a long, long time. I’d love to add one to my collection. Tough, tough, tough.

    The artwork and original photograph are mine, the coin was not. I made this illustration for a couple of coin album orders.
