November 2020 U.S. Coins Auction

详细说明: Perennially Popular 1787 Newman-1B Fugio Copper Obverse Cross After Date 1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 1-B, W-6600. Rarity-4. Obverse Cross After Date, No Cinquefoils, UNITED STATES. EF-40 (PCGS). A lovely medium brown example of this eagerly sought variety, both sides are hard and tight with appreciable gloss. The strike is a bit tight to the upper right on both sides, date clear on the obverse, several of the rings on the reverse flush with the border. The overall detail is bold and well balanced for the assigned grade, clash marks are as made, and there are only wispy handling marks that are easily overlooked in hand. A minor planchet flaw at the upper right reverse border is hardly worth mentioning. Newman 1-B is the most available variety of the historically significant Cross After Date Fugio coppers, although the supply of examples is extremely limited relative to the combined demand from type collectors and variety specialists. For the assigned grade, one would be hard pressed to improve upon this PCGS EF-40. Provenance: Collector envelope with attribution notation included. PCGS# 880. NGC ID: 2B8D.
