"1737" (1860s) Higley Copper. Bolen Copy. Musante JAB-10, Kenney-4, W-14275. THE VALVE OF THREE PENCE / CONNECTICVT, 3 Hammers. Brass. MS-65 (PCGS).

Beautiful brassy olive-gold surfaces are softly frosted and feature overall full striking detail. The impression is tight to the lower borders on both sides, but only trivially affecting the design elements in those areas. This is one of the most popular Bolen copies, considering the rarity and crudity of the original Higley coppers. The mintage for brass impressions is unknown; examples may have been struck by both Bolen and Dr. F.S. Edwards, who acquired the dies in 1865.
