Yet another 1794 cent... an S-22 in PCGS AU53. Thanks Big Moose for the attribution.

I too just picked up a 1794 on the Bay, and can't find a photo of a die marriage next to a number that matches. Anyone?

Scratches are told to be on the holder, and light porosity is claimed.

    Sheldon-22 variety, R-1. Bent sixth lock on the obverse and "mounds" reverse. ( area above the ONE ).

    So, I guess this would be a good example for the type?

    Matt, if the scratches over the cheek on the obverse are on the holder and not the coin, it looks like a nice 40 sharpness coin. The rim ding under the second A in AMERICA will detract but the color looks good.
