1789 Mott Token. Thick Planchet. Plain Edge. PCGS graded Genuine & Uncirculated Details.

A choice and pleasing specimen, PCGS certified and graded as having Uncirculated Details, being Mint State. Some typical irregularity in striking for the issue, yet far above average, too harshly noted as edge damage on the holder. The obverse depicts a tall Shelf Clock, and the reverse shows an American Heraldic Eagle. We are proud to offer this superior quality coin that has smooth hard medium chestnut-brown glossy surfaces and overall choice eye appeal. William and John Mott, importers and manufacturers of and dealers in gold and silver wares, cloth, watches, and other art goods. They privately issued these 1789-dated copper tokens which today besides its role in numismatics, is considered to be one of the earliest Advertising pieces to have circulated in the early Federal Period America.
