Lot Description

1787 Vermont Copper. RR-13, W-2255. Rarity-1. Mailed Bust Right / BRITANNIA. AU-53 (PCGS). 107.8 grains. Glossy medium brown with very nice eye appeal and superb sharpness. Slightly double struck among the obverse legends, but crisp and bold at the central device. The reverse shows its usual weakness, along with a substantial patch of inherent surface roughness behind the head of Britannia. A very nice high grade example of this popular Machin’s Mills product. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. PCGS #554 and #800830.
