Description
The 1783 Washington - Unity States Cent is filed under UNITY STATES in the Washington Pieces (1783-1800) series. The Unity States cent reads WASHINGTON & INDEPENDENCE 1783 around a laureate bust in a Roman mantle; the reverse has ONE CENT in an olive wreath, the fraction 1/100 and the legend UNITY STATES OF AMERICA (Baker 1). Its reverse copies the United States cent of about 1802 and 1803, which places its making well after the date it bears (search). It is catalogued as Baker-1. PCGS lists it as #689.
