1788 Connecticut Miller 10-C R5. VG-10. Struck over a 1785 Nova Constellatio. Sharpness VF25 but slightly bent at the bottom of the obverse. Microscopic roughness covers most of the planchet and there are myriad fine scratches on the lower left of the obverse, all blending into the natural patina. Mostly glossy chocolate brown with hints of greenish olive in the protected areas. Looks much better than the description may imply. The undertype from the 1785 Nova Constellatio is clearly evident on both sides with LIBERT above the head on the obverse and NOVA before the knees of the seated figure. Weight 114.4 grains.
Estimated Value $50-UP.

 
Unsold
