1786年康涅狄格州铜 PCGS MS 62
1786 Connecticut Copper. Miller 5.4-G, W-2580. Rarity-2. Mailed Bust Left. MS-62 BN (PCGS). CAC.154.3 grains. An ideally centered example with overall smooth, satiny surfaces that exhibit appreciable gloss. All major design elements are readily evident, softness of detail minor and easily forgiven in a state copper of this type. Lovely golden-brown patina throughout, the surfaces reveal flashes of faded pinkish-rose in isolated areas when viewed with the aid of strong lighting. A swirl of darker color associated with light surface roughness at the back of the seated figures head is the only worthwhile identifier. While this is not a rare die marriage in an absolute sense, the present example is certainly among the finest known and ranks as a significant condition rarity. An impressive provenance adds to this coins already considerable appeal.Ex "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman and Burdette G.
