1788 Connecticut Copper. Miller 9-E, W-4500. Rarity-4+. Mailed Bust Left. VF-35 (PCGS).
136.7 grains. Uniform light brown and quite choice save for a few short natural flaws in the upper obverse. The reverse is also slightly flawed, but almost not worth mentioning as it appears only as trivial granularity in places. Smooth in appearance and well-centered on the obverse. The reverse is just slightly high with the uppermost letters of the legend tight to the rim. Multiple heavy clash marks seen on the upper obverse.
PCGS# 687261.
