1788 Vermont Copper. RR-20, Bressett 10-L, W-2150. Rarity-3. Bust

1788 Vermont Copper. RR-20, Bressett 10-L, W-2150. Rarity-3. Bust Right. EF-45 (PCGS). A choice example of the RR-20 dies, far nicer in our opinion than even the desirable Choice EF grade from PCGS would suggest. Both sides are handsomely toned, obverse in a blend of rose-brown and sandy-gold, reverse lighter in golden-brown with a blush of deeper color in the upper right field. The texture is hard and frosty, obverse with a faint internal fissure at and behind the back of the effigy's head, but the planchet is otherwise free of troublesome flaws. There is no border denticulation at right obverse, lower reverse border into the bottoms of the date digits, but the overall design is bold and fully appreciable. Late reverse die state, slightly swollen in field above seated figure's outstretched arm and with several peripheral cracks through the head and the letters DE in INDE. The fine die lines that are often diagnostic of high grade early copper are plainly visible here, especially on the reverse. A great coin to represent either the type or RR number, and sure to sell for a strong premium to an astute bidder. Provenance: From the Emerald Coast Collection. PCGS# 563. NGC ID: 2B5D.
