Lot Description

1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 8-B, W-6740. Rarity-2. UNITED STATES, 4 Cinquefoils. EF-45 (PCGS). 134.0 grains. A lovely chocolate-brown Choice Extremely Fine example. The surfaces are hard and glossy, free from even trivial marks and roughness, and the only planchet flaws are a few minor and out of the way streaks at the reverse borders. Sharply struck just slightly off center, a few letters of BUSINESS are indistinct but the overall strength of detail is admirable. An appealing lightly circulated example. Provenance: From the Star of Texas Collection. PCGS# 889. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
