1787 Nova Eborac Breen-986 Figure Seated Left VG10. Double Struck. Sharpness EF45 or better but dull and covered with uniform fine to moderate granularity. Most likely lost in soil after little if any circulation. No marks or verdigris. Dark steel and olive. Boldly double struck. The first strike was about 4 millimeters off center to K-1 and the second was fairly well centered on the planchet. Clear evidence of the first strike shows on both sides with the lower part of EBORA above the centered EBOR and strong remnants of the shield visible to the right and slightly below the second shield. Too bad about the surfaces because this would have been a great error strike. Weight 108.9 grains.
Estimated Value $150-UP.
