Colonials
(1785) COPPER Bar Copper, Breen-1145, W-8520 -- Environmental Damage -- PCGS Genuine. VF Details. A small tine off the upper-left edge of the 12th bar confirms the authenticity of this bar copper, a colonial issue of mysterious origin. Supposedly, the coins were struck by Thomas Wyon in Birmingham, England in 1785 and modeled after Revolutionary War buttons. Granular surfaces are somewhat corroded, but the remaining design details makes this a great candidate for a colonial type set. Listed on page 76 of the 2018 Guide Book.
