- 1787 Immunis Columbia Copper / Large Eagle Reverse. W-5680. Rarity-4+. Plain Edge, Narrow Planchet. VF-25 (PCGS).
A uniformly bold piece with dark espresso brown and pewter gray patina throughout. The vast majority of the issue was struck on undersized planchets, resulting in part of the date and the upper portions of the reverse legend being left off the edge, as seen here. A few ancient pinscratches are seen beneath a glass, though these go entirely unnoticed to the naked eye. Smooth and lightly glossed in-hand, with scattered traces of microgranularity evident under scrutiny. The usual crack from the U of UNUM to the eagle's wing is weak but still present. Scarce and popular in all grades.
Provenance: From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68.
PCGS# 841. NGC ID: BFJL.
