1788 Connecticut Copper. Miller 11-G, W-4510. Rarity-2. Mailed Bust Left. AU-55 (PCGS).A choice, high grade Connecticut copper, perfect to represent the date or Mailed Bust Left type in a quality focused collection. Original, slightly lustrous chocolate-brown and steel surfaces that have no drawbacks of any kind. Obverse is well centered and well struck, while the reverse is yet sharper but a bit off center toward 12 oclock. Struck from late states of both dies, the obverse showing clear signs of wear and small die break from effigys chest akin to the 1787 "Horned Bust" variety; the reverse state is similarly late, with a die break having developed off the "I" of INDE. A thoroughly pleasing, premium quality piece.<p>PCGS# 687263.From the Sydney F. Martin Collection.
