- 1788 Vermont Copper. W-2260, RR-31, Bressett 24-U. URS-8. GEORGIVS III REX. VF-20 (PCGS). This interesting Vermont-related type is actually a Machin's Mills issue struck from a counterfeit British Halfpenny obverse and a workhorse reverse used to strike Vermont Coppers of several other die marriages. The obverse is well struck for the type, although the impression is drawn toward the viewer's right in the same fashion as the plate coin on page 91 of the excellent new reference <em>Whitman Encyclopedia of Colonial and Early American Coins </em>by Q. David Bowers and Ken Bressett. The reverse is typically weaker, especially in the center. We note brassy-copper color to both sides as well as light porosity, but there are no sizeable or otherwise individually mentionable detractions.
