 1788 Connecticut copper. MBL. CONNLC. M.13-A.1. R-5. Nearly Very Fine. 109.2 gns. Nice good olive brown in color on both sides. The piece appears smooth and hard to the naked eye, shows just microgranularity under magnification. There are no significant flaws requiring mention. Severely struck off center on both sides, the obverse to the upper left with some letters either all or partially off the flan, the reverse off to the upper right, INDE essentially gone. Described on its square collector's ticket as ''Struck as usual off centre.''
Ex Matthew Adams Stickney Collection (Henry Chapman, June 25, 1907, lot 228). Square collector's ticket accompanies the lot.
