1783 Nova Constellatio Copper. Crosby 2-B, W-1865. Rarity-2. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays, Small U.S. AU-50 (PCGS).A sharp representative of this classic pre-federal issue. Nice medium brown color and strong detail throughout, including on the central “U.S.” which is often weak on this variety. There are many tiny peck marks visible with a glass, mostly on the left side of the obverse and opposing area of the reverse, as well as a dusting of carbon at the period following NOVA.
