1786 Connecticut Copper. Miller 5.9-B.1, W-2635. Rarity-5. Mailed Bust Left. VG-10 (PCGS).145.9 grains. Mostly smooth on the motifs, with fine granularity in the fields and a few minor planchet streaks on the obverse. The reverse is similar, though a series of planchet fissures behind Liberty is much more extreme. Worn, with the peripheral weakness more seriously affecting the reverse where much of the legend is compromised, though the central definition is decent for the grade and about half of each date digit is clear. Painted white attribution numbers on the obverse.From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers. Earlier ex Jade Coin Company, April 2003 at the 2003 EAC Convention.
