Lot Description

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 37.3-i, W-4110. Rarity-3. Draped Bust Left. VF-30 (PCGS). 125.0 grains. Attractive and uniform light brown surfaces with inviting glossiness and excellent overall eye appeal. Fairly evenly struck and nicely centered with the legends comfortably away from the rims and the date as complete as the dies allowed. A scattering of tiny planchet imperfections are noted on the obverse while some larger natural flaws are seen on the reverse, positioned such that they really don’t stand out much. A retained lamination over LIB is mentioned for accuracy. A most satisfying example of the variety. Provenance: From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers. Earlier ex Anthony Terranova, 2000. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
