- 1785 Nova Constellatio Copper. Crosby 3-B, W-1895. Rarity-2. CONSTELLATIO, Pointed Rays. AU-55 (PCGS). Beautiful reddish-brown surfaces are boldly to sharply defined from a near-perfectly centered impression. Only the denticulation is incomplete in isolated areas around the borders -- a minor feature. Both sides are satiny in texture with hard, tight surfaces that are free of significant blemishes. Struck from an advanced state of the dies, as are most examples of this variety, there is considerable evidence of die rust on both sides. The reverse die break within the wreath above the date is also readily evident. Crosby 3-B is one of the more frequently encountered die marriages of the 1785 Nova Constellatio copper, although the present example is far finer both technically and aesthetically than the typically offered survivor. PCGS# 813. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
