Lot Description

1783 Nova Constellatio Copper. CONSTELLATIO. Crosby 1-A, W-1860. URS-8 or 9. Pointed Rays, Large U.S. AU-53 BN (NGC). Medium golden tan with pleasing mark-free surfaces to the unassisted eye -- a glass does little to dispel the notion. Bodly struck with essentially full all-seeing eye details impeded by just a hint of circulation. An ideal candidate for a colonial type set or an entry level gateway to the Nova Constellatio series.
