1785 Connecticut Copper. Miller 2-A.1 (R-5+). Mailed Bust Right. Roman Head
|
CH F |
$1,550.00
|
119.6 gns. Choice Fine or better for one of these. Surfaces are a glossy olive tan and are of a quality that is superior for this die variety. As will be plain the photos, there is some minor graininess on both sides; this is as much the result of the inherent roughness of the planchet as it is any physical change of the surfaces. Given the thinness of the planchet stock, there wasn't... more |

1785 Connecticut Copper. Miller 2-A.1 (R-5+). Mailed Bust Right. Roman Head

AM |
$450.00

152.8 gns. Fine. Dark brown surfaces are uniformly porous in the fields and noticeably smoother on the relatively well defined design motifs. The distinctive ''Roman Head'' is clear, while the reverse exhibits the usual weakness in the seated figure. The 2-A.1 is a very scarce variant of this popular head type. A splash of white ink on the obverse lead us to a very crude and smeared,... more |

Connecticut Coppers. 1785 Miller 4.4-C (R-3). Mailed Bust Right
|
G to VG |
$130.00
|
Fine or so. Olive-brown high points contrast with darker chestnut fields that are lightly porous. Major planchet flaws are noted at lower obverse and upper reverse; 1787 Miller 31.1-r.4. Draped Bust Left. Good to Very Good. A mostly problem-free, chocolate brown coin; 1787 Draped Bust Left. Very Good. Surfaces are a bit rough, precluding die variety attribution. 3 pieces. |

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.6-KK. Draped Bust Left

$875.00

142.6 gns. About Uncirculated or so from a technical standpoint. One will be hard-pressed to find much actual wear on this coin. Rather, it exhibits some of the typical flatness of strike inherent in the Draped Bust Left series. The most weakness is at the obverse effigy's drapery and at the reverse female's head; but on the overall this specimen is actually quite well struck for one... more |

$240.00

144.9 gns. Fine. Light brown high points stand out against darker brown, lightly porous fields. Obverse is a trifle off-center toward the 7:00 position, while the reverse is a bit off to the 11:00 position. The die break around 'TO' of AUCTORI is in a more advanced state than in Perkins:372. |

|
F to VF |
$90.00
|
135.9 gns. Fine to Very Fine. Choice, deep tan-brown surfaces exhibit few circulation marks and just a minor area of planchet laminations. Obverse is slightly off-center toward the bottom. Mostly smooth and attractive, the reverse is weakly defined as usual for the variety. |

1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 39.2-ee (R-5). AUCTOBI/ET LIR. Draped Bust Left
|
VF |
$475.00
|
Very Fine. Golden brown and quite attractive on the overall, this specimen exhibits minor circulation marks and a touch of graininess in a few spots. The obverse features the legend variant AUCTOBI, while the reverse replaces ET LIB with ET LIR! Both sides are a trifle off-center, nipping off the tops of a few letters in the reverse legend. This coin is a trifle finer than the recently... more |

1788 Connecticut Copper. Miller 2-D. Mailed Bust Right
|
CH VF |
$325.00
|
Choice Very Fine. Light salmon and olive tones grace this coins light brown surfaces. Well struck with clearly defined design motifs on both sides, this specimen exhibits only a few minor patches of roughness and a small edge bruise seen even through the encapsulation. A common variety but popular as a type coin as it is often available with clearly defined design elements, unlike so... more |
