                                       The following note accompanied the offering of this coin in Lyman H. Low’s 1905 sale:

“A statement accompanies this cent purports it was found at the site of the old United States Hotel, in Chester, Penn., when it was demolished some years ago. Both Washington and Jefferson were patrons of this hostelry and on the way to their southern homes it was their custom to make a stopover there, sometimes occupying a certain room jointly. It was in this particular apartment that the cent was found. Possibly George and Thomas were matching or tossing pennies, and in the excitement that followed, this one rolled away unnoticed.
