1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.29-s.1, W-3805. Rarity-7+. Draped Bust Left. VF-20 (PCGS).124.9 grains. Another significant offering of a great Connecticut copper rarity represented by a thoroughly attractive coin. Smooth surfaces are a pretty light tan-brown, the color almost totally even across both sides, with just a few splashes of deeper brown undertones in a few places. Nicely centered on a problem-free planchet, excellent quality and eye appeal for the grade. Just six examples are known of this die pair which was discovered by Mike Ringo in 1993. The present coin was the second example found and the first to be auctioned, the excitement of which resulted in a realization of $43,125 when we sold it in November 2006. This is among the better grade examples of just six known, not quite as sharp as the PCGS VF-35 discovery coin or the PCGS VF-25 Twin Leaf example, both of which we have sold in recent years, but overall just as appealing as those coins.PCGS# 718988.
