1788 COPPER Vermont Mailed Bust Right, Struck over Imitation Great Britain Halfpence AG3 NGC. RR-18, W-2135, R.5. Although well worn, the obverse of Ryder-18 is identified by the position of the ribbons near the VE, and the location of ON over the head. The reverse exhibits the letters GEORG from the imitation halfpence, and NDE from the Vermont reverse, all to the right in relation to the seated figure. Pleasing olive surfaces for the grade. Attribution of the undertype will pose a pleasant challenge to the advanced collector. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
Realized $499.38. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions. |
