1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 3-G.1, W-2805. Rarity-6. Mailed Bust Left. VF-25 (PCGS).94.4 grains. Uniformly granular surfaces with deep steel brown patina. Traces of lighter mahogany are noted on the obverse, while some of the relief features of the reverse are a bit darker than the fields, creating a welcomed contrast. Fairly well centered and evenly struck, with none of the design features compromised by the rims. A nice full date is also seen. A couple of minor planchet depressions are noted on the obverse, but the coin is relatively problem-free overall. Struck on a somewhat light and thin flan, not uncommon for the variety.From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers. Earlier ex Stack’s Bowers, March 2011:176; Anthony Terranova, 2012.
