Description

Charming 1787 Immunis Columbia Copper
Eagle Reverse, Choice AU

1787 PIECE Immunis Columbia Piece, Eagle Reverse AU55 NGC. Crosby Pl. VIII, 8, Breen-1137, W-5680. The Immune/Immunis Columbia pieces are of uncertain and disputed origins. Breen (1988) believed that the 1787 Eagle Reverse type was struck as an early pattern for a proposed federal coinage by Matthias Ogden using dies engraved by James F. Atlee, but some were likely produced later than he had thought. Pleasing chocolate-brown patina covers both sides of the present coin. The surfaces have hints of microgranularity and die rust, but there are no marks of any significance. A well-detailed example of this interesting Colonial. Listed on page 53 of the 2010 Guide Book.
