The Bolender Plate Coin and the Bowers Plate Coin 1st and 2nd Editions
Outstanding Pedigree
This important coin is the Finest Known example of this die marriage by far. It is one of only six examples known to me for this die marriage, and is the only specimen known that is graded by PCGS. All of the other known specimens are damaged. [The Reiver Specimen (another) Countermarked listed in the second edition of the Bowers book is the 1795 B-1, BB-21 die marriage, NOT 1795 B-8, BB-15.]
