1787 Vermont Copper. RR-13, Bressett 17-V, W-2255. Rarity-1. BRITANNIA. VF-30 (PCGS).Attractive mid grade quality for this popular Vermont copper variety, the obverse is well centered in strike with all major design elements bold. The reverse is struck off center to 12 oclock, the top of the seated figures head flush with the border. Typical striking quality on that side of the coin, the seated figures body generally outlined, yet soft, and the peripheries devoid of detail apart from faint traces of a few letters. Deep antique copper patina throughout, the in hand appearance is smooth with no blemishes of note. Later die state with an obverse break over the portrait and raised die lump in the field between the mouth and the letters TO in AUCTORI.
