1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 12-Q, W-2885. Rarity-3. Mailed Bust

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 12-Q, W-2885. Rarity-3. Mailed Bust Left, 1787/1877. EF-45 (PCGS). CAC. 134.0 grains. Deep golden tan with glossy, chiefly hard surfaces. No extraneous marks are noted on either side of this choice example of a popular overdate variety - the date was first entered as 1887, then corrected in the die to 1787, but what's a century among friends? Heavy obverse clash marks obscure much of the letters ONN, the design somewhat off center to the right, but not affecting CONNEC. The reverse is off center to 3 o'clock, as well, with the border tight to the top of the seated figure's head and hand, natural rim split at 9 o'clock, die break at the letter B in LIB bold and connected to the rim, another lighter crack from the denticles at 5 o'clock to the bottom of the shield, another heavier crack in the field between the letters IN and DE. Easily among the finest known examples of the variety and no doubt occupying a solid position in the Condition Census as well. Provenance: From the Emerald Coast Collection. Earlier ex Tom Rinaldo, August 2000; Stephen L. Tanenbaum; our sale of Collection SLT, January 2012 Americana Sale, lot 7156. PCGS# 355. NGC ID: 2B2R. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
