- Another Important 1785 Immune Columbia Copper 1785 Immune Columbia pattern. Copper. W-1960. Extra Star. AU-50 (PCGS). 147.7 grains. In this remarkable collection, here is a remarkable duplicate: another of the 12 or so known Immune Columbia patterns in copper, this one also in nice grade. The surfaces are chocolate brown and glossy, though showing the usual scattered planchet chips and pits associated with nearly every copper example of this type. A few little marks are seen, including a thin old scratch below CO of COLUMBIA and a trivial rim nick over BI of that word. Other scattered marks are seen, none of any consequence. Off the market for nearly 40 years, this piece is around the middle of the pack in terms of wear for an example in copper; about half are more worn and half are finer. Its history is as rich as any, and its aesthetic appeal places it ahead of most. An important piece and an important opportunity. Provenance: From the Archangel Collection. Earlier, from Stack’s sale of the Fleischer Collection, September 1979, lot 518. PCGS Population: 1, 4 finer (MS-63 BN finest). PCGS# 830 Click here for certification details from PCGS.
