CCFPress Press Manager United States 1420 Posts	Posted 05/01/2020 08:00 am PCGS - Another simply incredible piece from the "Specialist's Perspective on Colonial Coins" interview, this 1783 John Chalmers, Long Worm Shilling is tied with two others for second finest known in the PCGS population. At PCGS AU58, the lone piece graded higher is the only one for the variety graded in mint state. Almost never seen at auction, only one of the three AU58 examples has appeared in the last 13 years, selling in 2007, and again in 2012. Report this Post to the Staff
