1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 9-R, W-2860. Rarity-4+. Mailed Bust Left, IND. EF-45 (PCGS).

A top notch example of this popular overdate variety, among the nicest we have offered in recent years and tied for the finest graded of the Miller 9-R die variety of the overdate at PCGS. Pleasantly smooth and slightly glossy medium olive and steel-brown surfaces with hints of copper-rose. No serious marks or flaws, the planchet is far above average for one of these. Somewhat weakly struck at the lower left obverse and opposing reverse, but that allowed for a bolder strike on some of the more important details of the coin, namely the overdate and the three vines on the shield, which are exceptionally sharp on this piece.

PCGS# 352. NGC ID: 2B2S.
