1787 Connecticut copper. Miller 4-L, W-2810. Rarity-1. Horned Bust. AU Detail, Environmental Damage (PCGS).133.8 grains. A hornless bust, the early die state with no evidence at all of the obverse die break that gives this variety its moniker. Brown, rose, and olive with somewhat pitted surfaces, recolored from an old smoothing job that removed some scale but left intact the barely worn devices. Extremely sharp, a bold specimen of this popular die state and variety.From the Archangel Collection. Earlier, from Pine Tree’s sale of the John Carter Brown Library Collection, May 1976, lot 514.
