Description

Splendid 1787 Newman 13-X Fugio Cent
MS65 Red and Brown

1787 1C Fugio Cent, STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils, Pointed Rays MS65 Red and Brown NGC. Newman 13-X, R.2. Most of the surviving Mint State Fugio cents claim the Bank of New York hoard as their source, and that is almost certainly the case here. That hoard included 1,641 Fugio cents, and nearly half of those (726 pieces) were examples of Newman 13-X. It is doubtful that more than a handful were equal to this beautiful Gem. Both sides have deep bluish-brown toning with considerable faded red mint luster. Aside from a few minor planchet flakes and marks that were present when the coin was struck, this piece is virtually pristine. Listed on page 83 of the 2011 Guide Book.
