1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.36-T.2, W-3900. Rarity-2. Draped Bust Left, Skeleton Hand. EF-45.140.1 grains. A richly original example dressed in warm even, reddish-copper patina. Strike trivially off center to the lower left obverse and upper left reverse borders, affecting only the denticulation. The devices are boldly to sharply defined in all areas save for in the centers, where original planchet texture remains. There are no marks of consequence, and the eye appeal is well above average for a lightly circulated Connecticut copper irrespective of date or variety. An earlier state of these dies with minimal swelling over the left obverse.Accompanied by NGC insert # 4476508-007 with a grade of EF-45 BN for a 1787 Draped Bust Left Connecticut copper, presumably this coin.
