1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 1-B, W-6600. Rarity-4. Obverse

1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 1-B, W-6600. Rarity-4. Obverse Cross After Date, No Cinquefoils, UNITED STATES. VF-35 (PCGS). Newman Die State B/B. A better than usual example of this variety, cherished by collectors for its use of the first Fugio obverse, whose distinctive cross or quatrefoil after the date and the fine crosshatching in MIND YOUR BUSINESS make this a type all its own. Surfaces are generally warm, even deep golden-brown, upper right reverse with some old, hard scale through the rings that explains the darker color in that area. Magnification reveals a few faint hairlines in and around the central obverse that are consistent with the grade, and in no way distracting; there are no other notable blemishes. Both sides are hard and generally smooth, in fact, with some nice gloss. Obverse aligned to 3 o'clock with the date approaching the border, yet still complete, minor softness at the lower border weakens some of the letters in BUSINESS. The reverse impression is more significantly off center to 1 o'clock with the upper right border lightly into the rings, unusually broad border from 4 to 10 o'clock. The overall design is fully appreciable, and given this coin's other positives - which are many - it is an appealing example of this Newman number for collectors of all levels of experience and enthusiasm.
