 1786 Connecticut copper. MBL. M.5.2-I. R-4 (conjectural). Extremely Fine. White ink on obverse. 136.7 gns. Rich golden brown color on both sides. The obverse surface rough, granular in places, heavily flawed in the upper left field, on the back of the effigy's head, and beside the second 'O'. Reverse smoother and harder in appearance, some light linear flaws but none really important. The obverse about perfectly centered, just a slight trace of a planchet cutter lip at the top; the reverse off center to the bottom, partial date shows, edge beveled, there. Like the Perkins coin in overall quality and color. Same white ink handwriting as seen on the previous two.
Pedigree unrecorded. Round Circle H collector's ticket accompanies the lot.
