Description

1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 11-X, W-6790. Rarity-4. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils. AU-53 (PCGS).

A handsome dark chocolate-brown and steel piece with surfaces that are remarkably hard and smooth for a Fugio, showing no planchet flaws and possessing a pleasing gloss. Nicely centered with only trivial weakness of strike at the base of the sun dial, lower obverse rim, and opposing areas of the reverse. All of the major motifs and legends are well displayed and mostly quite sharp. This would make an excellent example of the type or this slightly scarcer die variety.

PCGS# 878094.

From the Pierre Fricke Collection. Purchased from Brian Greer in 2011.
