Description du lot

1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 13-X, W-6855. Rarity-2. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils. AU-53 BN (NGC). Glossy steely-copper patina with intermingled crimson-rose highlights. Both sides are sharply defined from a well centered strike, the only mentionable blemish an irregular flan flaw that bisects the reverse; the flaw is most prominent at the left border on that side of the coin. With 726 coins remaining in the Bank of New York hoard as of 1948, Newman 13-X is one of the most plentiful Fugio copper varieties in numismatic circles. The present example is ideally suited for inclusion in a high grade type set. PCGS# 883. NGC ID: 2B8E. Click here for certification details from NGC.
