Description
1786 Vermont Copper. Landscape. RR-8, Breen 6-E, W-2030. Rarity-3. VERMONTENSIUM. EF-45 BN (NGC).
Arguably the scarcest of the three VERMONTENSIUM varieties and almost certainly the most challenging to find in choice better grades. The present example offers a great deal of bold to sharp detail from a generally well executed strike. The impression is only trivially off center on both sides, affecting only the denticulation along the lower obverse and upper reverse borders. There are no singularly distracting marks, and the planchet is free of flaws apart from a single notable fissure at the upper reverse. We do, however, note a trace of glossiness and curious iridescent champagne-pink highlights that point to a light cleaning. Otherwise medium brown in color, with much to attract type collectors of colonial and early Federal era coinage.
PCGS# 545. NGC ID: ER5F.
