1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 33.2-Z.12. Draped Bust Left. 137.8 gns. Extremely Fine. Wonderful olive-brown surfaces exhibit subtle coppery tones around the protected areas of the devices and legends. Well centered on a high quality flan, the strike is about average for the 1787 Draped Bust Left type. The error collector will take note of a sizable straight planchet clip adjacent to the 'AUC' of AUCTORI.
Ex Herbert Oechsner Collection (Stack's, September 1988, lot 1109).
