Description du lot

1783 Nova Constellatio copper. Crosby 2-B, W-1865. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays, Small U.S. AU-55 (PCGS). 102.0 grains. Smooth chocolate brown with lovely eye appeal. Some trivial verdigris surrounds the all-seeing eye and its radiance, but the surfaces remain hard and glossy elsewhere. A short scratch crosses T of LIBERTAS, and a tiny nick is hidden under the 3 of the date, but this is a mostly problem-free example of this popular post-Revolutionary coinage. Provenance: From the Archangel Collection. Earlier, from Stack’s 1976 American Numismatic Association sale, August 1976, lot 107. PCGS Population: 16; 18 finer.
