 1787 Connecticut copper. DBL. ET LIR. M.37.1-cc.1. R-4. Nearly Extremely Fine. A superior example. White ink on obverse. 162.7 gns. Olive brown in color on both sides, the shade quite pleasing. The obverse surface a little rough in appearance, really just microgranular; the reverse much smoother with some light granularity visible in the upper and right fields. Planchet cutter clip visible on the obverse at upper right, with a burr still attached engaging the bases of the last two date numerals. Both sides about perfectly centered, the obverse and reverse a little off to the right. Very small rim marks visible on both sides, but these are essentially inconsequential.
Pedigree recorded as ex ''Chap Dec 6/89'' on its accompanying round Circle H collector's ticket.
