- 1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 9-R, W-2860. Rarity-4+. Mailed Bust Left, IND,1787 over 1788—Double Struck—VF-35 (PCGS). 119.8 grains. First struck about 20% off-center towards the 8 o’clock position relative to the obverse, then struck a second time on-center, with wildly overlapping details, especially on the reverse where two full overdates are visible. Light golden-brown and golden-olive surfaces are microscopically granular and visually attractive, with a few marks of circulation well hidden in the jumble of designs created by the multiple strikes. This is the only major error for this variety documented in Robert’s voluminous records on auction appearances and specimens in private collections. A fantastic die error and striking error wrapped in one. Provenance: From the Robert M. Martin Collection. Provenance not recorded. PCGS Population: 1; 2 finer for the type. PCGS #352 and #686415.
