1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 24-FF, W-3080. Rarity-6+. Draped Bust Left. Good-4 (PCGS).129.1 grains. The second example of this rarity in the Twin Leaf Collection, a variety that, as noted above, was missing from Norweb, Oechsner, Taylor, Ford and Newman. This one seems to have been struck very unevenly, with pronounced weakness through the right on both sides. The leftmost details are clear, as is the date, and the light golden olive brown color is pleasing even if the surfaces are a bit porous.From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers. Earlier ex Stack’s, September 2009:4076.
