1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.30-SS, W-3820. Rarity-6. Draped Bust Left. VF-35 (PCGS).145.9 grains. Smooth slightly ruddy light chestnut-brown, though the surfaces are microporous and there is some gentle pitting and roughness in places. Apparently cleaned at one time, the surfaces have now taken on a rather pleasing patina with nice gloss. Outlines of steel are seen around the reverse motifs and legends. The later die state has contributed to weakness at the effigys face. Decently centered on the obverse, though the reverse is rather low. A pronounced rim is seen over Libertys head while only the tips of the date digits are on the flan. Though a bit imperfect, it is a rather nice example overall of this rare variety, one that was missing from such notable collections as Norweb, Ford and Newman.PCGS# 686330.
