Description
1787 N. 2-C 'FUCIO' Cent, XF40
The Stickney-Ford Specimen
1787 Fugio Cent, Club Rays, Concave Ends, FUCIO, N. 2-C, W-6630,
R.6, XF40 PCGS. One of the rarities in the Fugio cent series,
this pleasing XF example has excellent design definition and
attractive light olive-brown surfaces that are mostly mark-free,
with a splash of dark steel toning at the lower left reverse. This
Club Rays Fugio cent, with concave ends to the rays, exhibits the
incorrect FUCIO spelling on the obverse. This is the only
collectible variety of the FUCIO type. One other variety is known
of this type, N. 23-ZZ, and it is extremely rare with only two or
three pieces known. Listed on page 85 of the 2024 Guide
