- 1785 Nova Constellatio Copper. Crosby 3-B, W-1895. Rarity-2. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays. EF-40 (PCGS). 125.69 grains. A handsome and evenly worn example of this Pointed Rays type with chocolate brown and mahogany patina throughout. The centers show a softness typically associated with this variety, though the peripheral devices are boldly defined. Die rust is prominent around US and within the wreath on the reverse, but the crack at the first N of NOVA just barely protrudes form the adjacent rim in this state. Overall glossy and attractive. Crosby 3-B is one of the more frequently encountered die marriages of the 1785 Nova Constellatio copper and is an ideal choice for type collectors. Provenance: From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68. PCGS# 813. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
