1787 Vermont BRITANNIA Copper, MS60 Brown

1787 COPPER Vermont Copper, BRITANNIA MS60 Brown PCGS. RR-13, Bressett 17-V, W-2255, R.1. The Colonial specialist knows that a Vermont BRITANNIA copper is extremely rare in Mint State, and the present piece is undoubtedly high in the census. The Ford Collection contained two examples of the variety, one in XF and the other described as "Technically Uncirculated," but with striated and granular surfaces. This example, like the Ford coin, has splashes of mint color on the obverse. It is otherwise medium brown with some splashes of darker toning. This piece is one of the finest Ryder-13s known. Listed on page 68 of the 2009 Guide Book.

Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 554, GSID# 221)
