Description

1787 Miller 33.1-Z.19 Connecticut Copper, AU50
From the Taylor Collection

1787 Connecticut, Draped Bust Left, M. 33.1-Z.19, W-3330, R.5, AU50 NGC. 131.1 grains. Obverse die 33.1 is known with reverse dies Z.13 and Z.19. Reverse die Z.19 is known with obverse dies 33.1, 33.8, and 33.11. A strong Condition Census example that is far finer then are found in most specialized collections. This piece is probably the third finest known behind an MS62 PCGS example and the heavily flawed primary Taylor coin. The Hessberg-Twin Leaf coin grades XF45, and the Oechsner Collection also had a Choice XF example. Ford had a VF, and the Perkins and SLT coins graded Fine. A pleasing golden-brown example, this piece displays blue-violet toning at the lower reverse. The centering is good, with full legends and border details below the bold date. Listed on page 66 of the 2021 Guide Book.
Ex: Frederick Taylor Collection (Bowers and Merena, 3/1987), lot 2498; Donald G. Partrick.
