- 1788 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Right XF40 NGC. M. 2-D, W-4405, R.1. 91.1 grains. A slight die crack is noted below the back of the mail on the obverse, with a delicate die crack from the lower curve of the B in LIB. Pleasing olive-brown and blue-steel surfaces are free of imperfections on either side. The obverse is nicely centered, while LIB on the reverse is partly off the flan. Attractive surfaces and pleasing color. Several higher grade pieces are known for this popular variety. The varieties and die states associated with 1788 reverse D would make a fascinating display, illustrating a complex emission sequence. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,527.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1788 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Right XF40 NGC. M. 2-D, W-4405, R.1. 114.2 grains. The obverse is seen only on this one variety, while the reverse appears here, on Miller 16.1-D, and on Vlack 13-88CT, a counterfeit English halfpenny. The current offering from the Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society includes five examples of the 1788 Connecticut Miller 2-D, each in a different die state. Crumbling appears along the right side of the I in LIB, with no trace of an obverse die break or reverse cracks. Planchet marks are noted at the central obverse on this pleasing olive and steel-brown example, with microscopic granularity on both sides. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $587.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1788 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Right, Small Head Right Fine 12 NGC. M. 1-I, W-4400, R.5. 106.5 grains. This variety is also identified as Vermont Ryder-39, Whitman 2265. The obverse die was previously used for 1787 Connecticut coppers, and identified in that series as Miller obverse 1.1. In the 1788 series, obverse 1 and reverse I are unique to this variety. Improperly centered as usual for the variety, with reverse details typically weaker than those on the obverse. Due to the uneven striking, certain aspects of this lovely olive-brown example suggest a higher grade, while others suggest a lower one. This variety appeared in the 1975 Pine-Tree EAC sale, and in Taylor, Perkins, and Ford. All four coins grade in the range of Good to Fine, and in each case the reverse is weaker than the obverse. The Eric P. Newman example has far finer surfaces and color than any others we have seen. Ex: John Zug (10/28/1926); Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $14,100.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Right, Roman Head, INDE ET LIB Grade Fine 15 NGC. M. 52-G.1, W-2745, High R.6. 95.7 grains. Obverse 52 is known with reverse die G.1, and rarely with G.2. The total population of both varieties is less than 20 coins. Reverse G.1 is more frequently seen with obverse 3. Obverse 52 is known as the Roman Head, and it is one of only five obverse dies that have the bust facing to the right. Those five dies were responsible for eight varieties, and only two of those are seen with any frequency. Miller 52-G.1 is typically found well-circulated. The finest known to us is the Taylor specimen, called F12/VF20. The Newman coin follows close behind, and it is certainly a Condition Census example. The 1975 Pine Tree-EAC coin and the piece in Perkins were each called VG to Fine, and Ford's was graded Good and called a "superior example." Although not perfectly smooth, it is far finer than the rough and granular Ford example. The surfaces of this piece combine olive and steel-brown with mahogany overtones, showing moderate marks that are consistent with the grade. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $4,406.25. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Draped Bust Left AU55 NGC. M. 47-a.3, W-4310, High R.6. 145.1 grains. The obverse and reverse dies are both unique to Miller 47-a.3. There are probably only 15 or 16 examples of the Miller 47-a.3 known in all grades. This is the third example we have handled, and it is far finer than either of the others, both from the W. Philip Keller Collection. Others that we know of include the Fine to VF Pine Tree-EAC coin, the XF Garrett piece, Fine examples in Taylor and Ford, and the VF Perkins specimen. Pleasing semi-glossy golden-brown surfaces show rich chocolate-brown overtones. Nicely centered and problem-free. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $8,225.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
