1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Draped Bust Left VF30 NGC. M. 37.4-k.1, W-4115, R.3. 140.4 grains. Reverse dies k.1 and RR are known with this obverse, while reverse k.1 makes no other appearances in the Connecticut series. This steel-brown example has smooth and somewhat glossy surfaces with scattered handling marks on each side. The left and right obverse fields show bulges from die sinking. The modest grade of the Eric P. Newman piece and the significant population of the variety mean that this coin will provide an excellent opportunity for the type collector, or for the pedigree aficionado. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
