1787 COPPER Immunis Columbia, Eagle Reverse, XF40 PCGS. W-5680, High R.4. Crosby Pl. VIII, 8, Breen-1137. An elusive type believed struck in Birmingham, England as a proposal for an American coinage contract. Generally mahogany-brown, with lighter tan-brown toning across the reverse field. The right obverse field has a couple of unimportant planchet flaws and handling marks. Minor roughness on the lower reverse rim was likely on the planchet prior to the strike. Listed on page 57 of the 2017 Guide Book.
