I bought this off of ebay for 85.00, with free shipping. Originally 88.99. I made a best offer and the seller accepted it right away. It's pretty rough and banged up, but it's what I can afford right now. All of the other ones in the lower price range were either severely worn, bent, or badly corroded. The other ones had barely readable dates. What I like about this one is the date being easily readable. This one might have been either spooned or went through a dryer. Overall, I am happy that I filled the hole in my collection. https://www.ebay.com/itm/396236157357  Errers and Varietys.

Congratulations, I have two 1797's and love them.
I bought mine a few years ago. You made a great purchase and have a piece of history to enjoy.
