1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 15-Y, W-6915. Rarity-2. STATES UNITED, 8-Pointed Stars on Label. Double Struck. VF Details--Damage (PCGS).This is a significant Newman number in the Fugio series, due to use of the 8-Pointed Stars on Label reverse die, and this is an even more desirable piece due to the dramatic shift double strike error. Both sides are double struck, the second impression approximately 15 to 20 degrees off center to 9 oclock, but with little to no rotation between impressions. Remnants of the first strike are plainly evident along the right borders, as well as at lower obverse and upper reverse, the most significant feature being two full and bold dates on the obverse. Nice circulated cameo appearance with golden-brown motifs set against deeper chestnut brown fields. Several scratches, digs and pits in and around the centers on both sides explain the PCGS qualifier, planchet lightly flawed at 8 oclock on the obverse.PCGS# 878505. BASE PCGS# 898.
