- 1787 Auctori Plebis Token. W-8770. Rarity-3. EF-40 (PCGS). Glossy copper brown surfaces display tinges of olive that are more prevalent on the reverse. The strike is trivially off center to 1 o'clock on the obverse, 3 o'clock on the reverse, but the only significant effect is the absence of the base of the digits in the date. A few minor marks on the obverse and reverse portraits are appropriate for the assigned grade, and the overall detail is suitably bold for a circulated survivor of this type. Produced in England and circulating there starting no later than 1795, the Auctori Plebis tokens have been adopted by American collectors due to the similarity of the obverse portrait to that used on Draped Bust Left Connecticut coppers. PCGS# 601. NGC ID: 236S. Provenance: Acquired from Pickwick, 1964. Paper envelope with provenance and collector notes included.
