- 1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 15-Y, W-6915. Rarity-2. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils, 8-Pointed Stars on Label. Fine-12 (PCGS). 141.3 grains. A handsome and richly toned example of this desirable variety, with caramel hues on the high points and chestnut-brown in the fields. The dies are perfectly centered over each side and show an evenly bold impression throughout. Natural planchet texture is mostly isolated to the border, though a small void at the center of the reverse shows through just slightly at the sundial. The dies exhibit considerable fatigue in the form of peripheral cracks, though the design elements maintain considerable definition at this grade level. The top star on the label remains sharp and distinct while the lower star is largely obscured by wear. Attractive and deserving of up-close inspection. Provenance: From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68. PCGS# 898. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
