Colonial Coin Union Census List

An apparently unique specimen, struck on an extremely thick planchet and exhibiting far more detail than seen on any other known example.  Indeed (and remarkably), the full legends are bold and complete, the obverse harp and the folds of the seated figure's gown are clear and crisp, and the reverse ship and all of the waves are fully struck up.

There may be a piece - somewhere - in higher technical grade than this example, but we cannot imagine a piece which better exhibits the intended design than this one.
