1787 Fugio Cent, UNITED STATES, Cinquefoils -- Double Struck -- Good 6 NGC. N. 15-H, W-6890, R.4. The obverse radial crack at 4:30 aids attribution of the scarce Newman die pairing. The double strike is apparent as two sets of rings above the reverse inner circle. It appears that the first strike was normal, and the second strike was uniface reverse and off center, with a planchet present between the obverse die and the present piece. The medium brown surfaces are lightly granular. Listed on page 89 of the 2017 Guide Book.
From The Palos Verdes Collection.
