- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left, Struck over 1785 Nova Constellatio 4-D AU55 NGC. M. 13-D, W-2890, R.2. 112.7 grains. This piece is struck over a 1785 Crosby 4-D Nova Constellatio copper. The 1785 date from the undertype is boldly visible on the obverse at 8 o'clock. Although a few trivial planchet flaws appear on the reverse, most of the apparent surface marks on this piece are actually remnants of the earlier Nova Constellatio design. Faint bluish toning appears on the high points of this lovely piece, with light brown surfaces and hints of mint red. A double struck 13-D appeared in the Oechsner sale, but this is the first overstrike we have seen or heard of. It is also finer than nearly every other example offered in recent memory. This piece was simply and conservatively described by the Chapman brothers in 1904: "1787 Fine. Struck over a Nova Constellatio. Probably C. 2-D." Ex: John G. Mills (Chapman Brothers, 4/1904), lot 264; Hillyer Ryder; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $5,287.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left XF45 NGC. M. 13-D, W-2890, R.2. 128.1 grains. Die alignment 225 degrees. Obverse die 13 is found only on this variety, and reverse die D also appears with obverse 9. An incomplete planchet (clip) appears at 7 o'clock on the obverse and 9 o'clock on the reverse. The dark steel-brown surfaces combine faint granularity with frosty luster. Although certified as Choice XF, we are unable to find more than a trace of wear on this distinctive piece. The Taylor, Perkins, and Ford coins each reside in the XF to AU grade range. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $1,057.50. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

The distinctive reverse has the branch hand separating IN and DE, with ETLIB crowded toward the right. The tops of the date overlap the exergue line.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left XF45 NGC. M. 11.2-K, W-2875, R.3. 149.7 grains. Dr. Hall's white edge paint is clearly visible on this piece.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left VF20 NGC. M. 11.1-E, W-2870, R.2. 128.1 grains. Obverse die 11.1 only appears on this variety, while reverse die E also appears with obverses 9 and 10. However, the obverse is renumbered and appears as obverse 7 in the 1788 series. This splendid olive-brown example has faint bluish overtones with smooth surfaces. The obverse is nicely centered with complete legends. The reverse also shows full legends that are tight against the left border. The flan is slightly out of round. The Newman coin is similar to several VF examples that have appeared in major collections, including Taylor, Perkins, and Ford. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $587.50.
