 1785 Connecticut copper. MBR. M.6.3-G.1. R-3. Choice Extremely Fine. A third and also much nicer example than almost all others seen. 136.2 gns. Nice medium brown obverse, somewhat lighter golden brown on the back. The obverse surface mostly smooth and hard, just microgranular in places. Loss of sharpness on this side due to the failing state of the reverse. The reverse much rougher in the center as expected, the die very worn, breaking at the left and upper right, the last two numerals of the date obscured.
Pedigree unrecorded. Round Circle H collector's ticket accompanies the lot.
