 1785 Connecticut copper. MBR. M.6.3-G.2. R-5+. Choice Extremely Fine. 131.0 gns. Nice, light golden brown obverse, a little darker on the reverse. The obverse surface typical, lightly granular; the reverse much rougher as expected from the breaking state of the die. The obverse nicely centered; the reverse off to the upper right, portions of the legend off the flan there, with a large denticulated rim showing at the lower left. It appears that reverses G.1 and G.2 might be the same, the one reworked from the other. The differences between the two are minute whereas the similarities are considerable.
Pedigree unrecorded.
