1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 9-R. 87/88 overdate. Mailed Bust Left. 145.5 gns. Fine to Very Fine in terms of detail. Surfaces are dark and grainy, with some verdigris unfortunately obliterating the date. A curious planchet ''bulge'' is best seen from the reverse at 10:00.
Ex John Griffee Sale (McCawley & Grellman, October 1995, lot 275).
