Lot 16
1787 Vermont. Britannia. Ryder 13. Sharpness of AU-50 with planchet problems. In terms of actual wear, a rock-solid AU coin, struck on a defective planchet that is partially cracked. The image shows it all, as you can see the crack snaking away from the triangular void at 8:00. A fascinating and visually appealing interesting piece.
Estimated Value $800 - 900.
Originally bequeathed to the American Numismatic Society by the Orlowski estate, later sold in the 1984 Mid-American Rare Coin Auction including other selections from the ANS.
