- 1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 8-B, W-6740. Rarity-3. UNITED STATES, 4 Cinquefoils. AU-55 (PCGS).
A supremely attractive Choice AU with hard, satiny surfaces bathed in even antique copper brown patina. Both sides are smooth in hand with no detracting marks or other blemishes. Well centered on the obverse, the lower border a bit soft, typical of the variety, but the balance of that side sharply to fully defined. The reverse impression is tight to the lower border with no denticulation from 4 to 7 o'clock, but sharp otherwise. By Fugio copper standards, Newman 8-B is among the more common varieties and most pieces trace their pedigree to the Bank of New York Hoard, in which some 246 examples resided as late as 1948. Superior for the assigned grade, the coin offered here would do equally well in a type or variety set.
PCGS# 889. NGC ID: 2B8F.
