Description du lot

1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 19-Z, W-6975. Rarity-5. STATES UNITED, Label with Raised Rim. Fine-12 (PCGS). 141.5 grains. Pleasing light brown with smooth surfaces and just a bit of old encrustation around devices. Good sharpness and eye appeal for the grade, some light scattered marks, little rim nick over O of FUGIO, dull scrape under ONE, thin short scratch at reverse rim at 1 o'clock, apparently lintmark/struck-through goes under rings in northeast reverse. A desirable example at this grade level, an old friend last sold by us more than a half century ago.
