1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.7-r.2, W-3440. Rarity-1. Draped Bust Left. EF-45 (PCGS).117.2 grains. Reddish-brown and faintly lustrous, this coin shows trouble-free circulation wear and about as strong as a strike as one is apt to find for this die pairing, the centers showing some of the original planchet surface where it was not flattened out by the strike. Thin planchet lamination blends into seated Liberty’s drapery on the reverse. An available die marriage but in uncommonly nice quality.From the Robert M. Martin Collection. Ex Herbert Oechsner Collection, Stack’s, September 8-9, 1988, lot 1116.
