1787 Connecticut Draped Bust Left Miller 37.6-k.4 Rarity-5+ VF30. Ten points sharper where the designs were properly struck up, but the strike behind the portrait and at the opposing area on the reverse is very weak. Otherwise the only defects are a spot of verdigris in the hair right of the forehead and a couple shallow planchet voids in the obverse fields. LDS with strong swelling at UCT in AUCTORI. Glossy chocolate and steel brown. Superior to the Perkins example in spite of the imperfections. Weight 182.0 grains.
Estimated Value $250-UP.
From the Dr. Charles Ruby collection.
