Lot Description

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.19-Z.1, W-3645. Rarity-4. Draped Bust Left, INDE/INDN. Fine-12 Planchet Flaw. 116.1 grains. Attractive orange-brown surfaces are originally and nicely preserved with no post-striking blemishes to report. A prominent planchet crack is located at 2 o'clock relative to the obverse, a few shallow fissures in the centers on both sides. The strike is drawn trivially to the viewer's right on the obverse, but all devices are fully appreciable save for those affected by the aforementioned planchet crack. The prominent INDE/INDN feature is readily evident to the unaided eye. PCGS# 370.
