1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Draped Bust Left VF20 NGC. M. 26-AA, W-3120, R.5. 134.3 grains. Three varieties are known for obverse 26, and no other combinations are identified for reverse AA. All three varieties are scarce, but each is available with a little patience. Although noticeably worn, both sides have complete legends that are well-centered on the planchet, with the tops of the date visible. The surfaces show reddish-brown patina with blue-steel overtones. This die marriage is typically found in the Very Good to Very Fine grades, but rarely finer. Ex: Richard Picker; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
