1785 Connecticut Copper. Miller 1-E, W-2300. Rarity-4. Mailed Bust Right. VF-20 Environmental Damage.,128.7 grains. Otherwise dominant olive-brown patina yields to swirls of lighter rose-orange here and there on the obverse. That side of the coin is rough and pitted to explain our stated qualifier, the reverse also lightly pitted yet smoother in hand. The first two digits in the date are partially off the flan, yet all four are legible, and the overall detail is uncommonly bold for this variety with the only mentionable softness confined to the right obverse and left reverse peripheries. Shallow curved planchet clip just before 6 oclock relative to the obverse. Similar in sharpness to the Perkins:182 coin, and only marginally less sharp than the Craige:11100 coin that we sold in January 2013, both of which were described as among the finer known for this conditionally challenging variety.,PCGS# 316.,,Collector envelope with attribution notation included.
