- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left VF25 NGC. M. 9-E, W-2855, High R.5. 183.6 grains. Die alignment 45 degrees. The obverse die is discussed above, while reverse E appears with obverse dies 9, 10, and 11.1. This piece is annotated 'Hall Collection' on Eric P. Newman's envelope, based on the Circle H tag. However, current research suggests that William Wallace Hays was actually the Circle H collector. Both sides show pleasing olive-brown toning with a splash of bluish-maroon right of center on the obverse. Trivial surface granularity is evident. The obverse has CONNEC tight against the border, and the reverse has a bold INDE ET with LIB nearly absent. The date is strong. This example is similar to others appearing in major sales, falling in the Fine to XF grade range. Ex: Charles Steigerwalt (9/1895); William Wallace Hays; Hillyer Ryder; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $705.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left VF25 NGC. M. 9-D, W-2850, High R.5. 137.3 grains. Die alignment 270 degrees. Obverse 9 is found in combination with reverse dies D, E, and R, while reverse D is also found with obverse 13. All four varieties appear in the present sale. The round Circle H tag that accompanies this lot and a few others in the present sale originated with William Wallace Hays (1821-1899). Struck on a defective planchet with a rim anomaly at 4 o'clock. This example has chocolate-brown surfaces with a small obverse planchet defect on the cheek. Imperfectly centered with AUCTORI bold and CONNEC nearly absent. The reverse has most of the legend bold. The date is almost entirely off the flan. Ex: Dr. Thomas Hall (5/1890); William Wallace Hays; Hillyer Ryder; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $940.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left AU50 NGC. M. 8-O, W-2840, R.3. 151.2 grains. Die alignment 260 degrees. Dr. Hall's white edge paint is clearly visible on this lovely olive-brown example. Delicate peripheral blue-steel toning appears on the obverse, with faint bluish overtones on the reverse. Obverse 8 appears with reverse dies N, O, and a.1, the latter unique. Reverse die O is found on Miller 8-O and nowhere else in the series. This copper is comparable to the AU Perkins coin, and finer than examples appearing in the 1975 Pine Tree-EAC sale, the Taylor sale, and the Ford Collection. Ex: Dr. Thomas Hall; Virgil Brand; Brand Estate (sold for $2.00 on May 17, 1935); B.G. Johnson (sold for $5.00); Eric P. Newman; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $5,581.25.

- 1787 COPPER Connecticut Copper, Mailed Bust Left, Hercules Head MS62 Brown NGC. M. 7-I, W-2830, R.6. 151.2 grains. The obverse is a reappearance of the 1786 Obverse 5.3 as it appears on Miller 5.3-G and 5.3-N, both offered above. In its rare 1787 reincarnation, both dies are used only for this one variety, and only about two dozen are known in all grades. The obverse shows several bulges and cracks, and was clearly serviceable for a limited time. The 1975 Pine Tree-EAC example was described as "Many details fully Very Fine, others Fine." At the time, the cataloger wrote that it was the finest example auctioned in more than 50 years. The Eric P. Newman specimen is far finer than the Choice VF Ford coin that Michael Hodder called the second best he had seen behind the Oechsner coin, also graded VF. Oechsner's was the Crosby plate coin. Other examples include Taylor's Choice Fine and Perkins' Fine. This example, from Dr. Hall and showing his famous edge paint, is typical of all others in showing considerable central weakness. However, the exceptional quality of this coin, showing faint cartwheel luster on its pleasing olive-brown surfaces, is anything but typical. While this variety poses grading difficulties, it is virtually as struck. The dies were of such high relief that, upon striking, the metal did not flow into their deeper recesses. There is no question that this example is far finer than any others that are known to us. Ex: Dr. Thomas Hall; Virgil Brand; Brand Estate; B.G. Johnson; Eric P. Newman; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society. Realized $41,125.00. Description courtesy of Heritage Auctions.
