1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 22-M, W-7020. Rarity-4. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils. VF-30 (PCGS).

140.0 grains. Noteworthy quality for this scarce and condition sensitive variety. Glossy light brown surfaces show no significant impairments and the strike is nicely centered and well impressed. The strong strike allows for close study of the fascinating clash marks of this variety, here seen with at least two sets in different orientations depending on die rotation. This piece is superior to the VF-30 (PCGS) Pierre Fricke example that realized $2,760 in our November 2021 Baltimore Auction.

PCGS# 878116.

From the Star of Texas Collection. Purchased from Richard Picker.

Estimate: $ 1500
