1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.2-Z.5, W-3340. Rarity-1. Draped Bust Left. VF-35 (PCGS).131.3 grains. Lustrous fields give the impression of a much higher grade on this golden-brown coin, a swath of darker brown patina noted through NNEC on obverse. Central strike a bit soft as always, a tiny vertical delamination obscures only Liberty’s face. A choice example of a common die marriage, ideal for inclusion in a mid-grade Colonial type set.From the Robert M. Martin Collection. Purchased in March 1983, source not recorded.
