 1785 Connecticut copper. MBR. M.3.4-F.2. R-2. Technically Very Fine. A second. 138.6 gns. A Miller Sale duplicate. Striking two tone obverse, a combination of orange-brown and deep russet; more even on the reverse, mostly medium orange brown, the color a little darker at the upper right. Obverse surface quite rough in the upper right quadrant, lightly flawed at left; the reverse surface much smoother and harder in appearance. Fairly well centered on both sides, and an interesting example.
Ex Henry C. Miller Collection (Tom Elder, May 29, 1920, part of lot 2078). Square collector's ticket accompanies the lot.
