- 1788 1C Massachusetts Cent, Period MS64 Brown NGC. R. 9-M, W-6270, R.6. Michael Hodder rated the 9-M as R.6 in the Ford Collection, and called the Uncirculated Ford coin the finest seen. Unfortunately, the coin described was actually an example of the much more plentiful Ryder 7-M. Q. David Bowers rates Ryder 9-M as URS-6 in the Whitman Colonial Encyclopedia, suggesting that 17 to 32 are known. The present offering is the first example of this variety that we have offered in our auctions over the last two decades. This amazing copper is far finer than any others known. The Norweb Collection had an AU example acquired from Richard Picker. The Taylor Collection piece graded VF. The American Numismatic Society holds a coin that we grade Fine, and the Ted Craige Collection had a dented VG. Only one other example graded Fine appears in our brief survey of Massachusetts copper coinage, while Mike Packard notes that he is aware of only one example that grades XF. This is an extraordinarily important offering of a Massachusetts cent that Packard calls "a monster coin." Both sides exhibit intermingled olive-brown and golden-tan, with considerable mint red remaining in the margins. Trivial lamination is noted at 11:30 on the obverse. The reverse has a few stable corrosion spots scattered about the central devices. Otherwise, both sides have smooth and lustrous surfaces. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

- 1788 1C Massachusetts Cent, Period AU Details, Improperly Cleaned NGC. R. 8-C, W-6260, R.3. A net grade of XF is appropriate for this piece, in our opinion. While outside the census, it is a lovely example that will make a nice addition to a variety collection of Massachusetts copper coins. Lightly granular surfaces exhibit a small green corrosion spot in the left obverse field. The surfaces combine olive, golden-brown, and reddish-orange, the latter remaining from cleaning long ago. Over the years, this nicely detailed example has acquired a pleasing appearance. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,410.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1788 1C Massachusetts Cent, Period AU50 NGC. R. 3-E, W-6220, R.4. A scarce variety that is usually only found in grades lower than XF. The October 2004 Ford sale had a lovely Mint State piece, with another similar piece in the American Numismatic Society holdings. Only about a dozen examples grade XF or AU, including this lovely piece from the Eric P. Newman Collection. The pleasing chestnut-brown surfaces exhibit light granularity, with several planchet flaws and retained laminations. However, this is still a charming example with good overall eye appeal. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $2.50; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,175.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1788 1C Massachusetts Cent, Period VF30 NGC. R.-3-A, W-6210, R.4. Ryder 3-A is a scarce variety, and the finest known to us are a few AU examples. The present piece is below the Condition Census, but is a suitable representative of the variety. The obverse has myriad lamination defects and other planchet flaws, while the reverse has a few rim bruises and a small patch of corrosion at the branch and MA. The surfaces combine chocolate-brown and golden-tan. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman @ $1.25; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $440.63. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1788 1C Massachusetts Cent, Period MS65 NGC Brown. R. 1-D, W-6190, R.3. The typical 1788 Ryder 1-D cent has rough surfaces, apparently struck on poorly produced planchets. This piece is similar to the Norweb coin, graded MS60-63, and the finest Ford specimen that was called Uncirculated. Each of the three coins has peripheral roughness combined with clear central areas. The Eric P. Newman piece has exceptional golden-brown and olive surfaces with traces of mint red. Trivial light green verdigris is noted in places, with a retained planchet lamination on the reverse over the U. The exact census rank of this coin is uncertain, but it is doubtless quite high. The 1-D is a common variety that is seldom encountered in grades above XF. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp & Coin Co.; Mary Cruzan; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $16,450.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
