- 1788 Connecticut Copper. Miller 16.2-O, W-4605. Rarity-5. Draped Bust, INDL ET LIB. VF-25 (PCGS). A handsome and inviting piece with olive-copper patina to the high points, the remaining surface areas dressed in more vivid autumn-brown. The obverse is struck off center to the right and heavily clashed around the right side, mostly obliterating CONNEC, while the letters UCTORI in AUCTORI are strong. The reverse is centered well, although sinking of the die at the upper left has obliterated not only the T in ET and the adjacent stars on that side, but also the first cinquefoil and the letter A in AUCTORI on the obverse. A prominent crack passes through Liberty from this area of swelling to the lower right. Smooth in hand with minimal pitting and no detracting marks. All in all, a pleasing mid grade example of this scarce and popular variety with the INDL blunder on the reverse. PCGS# 415. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
