Lot Description

Impressive Mint State 1785 Nova Constellatio Copper Crosby 3-B 1785 Nova Constellatio Copper. Crosby 3-B, W-1895. Rarity-2. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays. MS-63 BN (PCGS). A lovely chestnut-brown specimen displaying exceptional eye appeal and excellent physical quality. Somewhat glossy in overall texture, that in itself a "plus" for this type. From the usually seen rusted state of the dies, large cud within the wreath above the date, raised lumps and lines throughout, especially on the obverse at the all-seeing eye. Choice for the grade and ideally suited for an advanced type collection of early American issues. Provenance: From our Baltimore Auction of October 2018, lot 6090. PCGS# 813.
