Lot Description

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 1.2-C, W-2720. Rarity-3. Mailed Bust Right, Muttonhead, Topless Liberty. EF-40 (PCGS). Well centered on the obverse and drawn just slightly to 6 o'clock on the reverse. Scattered flan flaws show in the fields on each side, along with natural planchet texture at the centers. An old think mark through the T of ET on the reverse is the only remarkable abrasion. The late die state leaves much of the legends thin or indistinct, as is typically seen. Actual friction remains minimal and evenly distributed, resulting in strong eye appeal throughout. PCGS# 343. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
