1787 Vermont Copper, BRITANNIA, MS63 Brown NGC. CAC. RR-13, Bressett 17-V, W-2255, R.1. Ex: Donald G. Partrick Collection. Early Die State. Abundant mint luster glows from the glossy, chocolate-brown coloration, where hints of faded mint color remain. The obverse is bold from edge-to-edge and well centered. Slight planchet roughness is noted under magnification, but the overall surfaces are pleasing and remarkable for the issue. The reverse is characteristically weak on BRITAN NIA and at the date. Even so, this example is far sharper than normally seen. The variety is excessively rare in Select Uncirculated condition. Tied with one other example as the finest-known RR-13 Vermont copper.
Ex: Phillip Bennedetti (9/1966); Donald Groves Partrick (Heritage, 1/2015), lot 5765; FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2016), lot 3555; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 6/2016), lot 4254.
