1786 Connecticut copper. MBL. M.4.1-G. R-3. Extremely Fine. Another superior specimen, the fourth finest seen by the cataloguer after the above, a gem, and the Perkins:218 & Taylor:2346 tie. The Miller Plate Coin. 98.3 gns. Dark olive and brown on both sides, the reverse a deeper shade. The obverse surface mostly smooth and hard showing only microgranularity at the upper right; the reverse much rougher in appearance, flawed at the upper right, the field there a little bit rough. Old, fairly deep scratches on the obverse through the effigy's chin and neck.
Pedigree unrecorded.
