1786 Vermont Copper. RR-9, Bressett 7-F, W-2040. Rarity-4. Baby Head. VG Details--Environmental Damage (PCGS).117.4 grains. Microporosity is apparent under scrutiny though the complexion remains pleasing in-hand. The surfaces are evenly worn and free from notable abrasions, leaving the focal elements starkly framed against smooth fields. A lovely apricot color emphasizes the high points while the surrounding areas are shadowed in a darker burgundy hue. The Baby Head variety is easily recognized and popular, but is also among the scarcer varieties to locate. This piece is an overall attractive specimen with bold detail that should see serious interest from collectors.From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68.
