Lot Description

"1783" Washington Draped Bust Copper. Restrike. W-10360, Vlack 17-L, Baker-3. URS-8-9. Engrailed Edge, Copper. Proof-67 RB (PCGS). Considerable reflectivity is evident on the obverse, the reverse being a bit more restrained in appearance with warmer orange-brown color. The obverse is minimally patinated with a mostly light-pink sheen. Fully struck and expertly preserved, this lovely Superb Gem would fit nicely into an advanced collection of Washingtonia. Finest certified at PCGS!
