1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.31-gg.2, W-3825. Rarity-5+. Draped Bust Left, ETLIR. VG-8 (PCGS).
134.5 grains. Glossy deep brown with some gentle steel outlines to the devices and through the legends. The surfaces are rough and there are a few small planchet fissures noted, but the appearance is still quite good for the grade. Fairly well centered with the legends clear and the date about 40% off the flan. From the historic First Annual C4 Sale.
Provenance: From the Twin Leaf Collection of Connecticut & Massachusetts Coppers. Earlier ex McCawley and Grellman's First Annual C4 Convention sale, October 1995:181; Sixth Annual C4 Convention sale, November 2000:212.
