- 1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 15-Y, W-6915. Rarity-2. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils, 8-Pointed Stars on Label. VF-30 (PCGS). 136.2 grains. Rich chocolate brown across the highpoints is complemented by olive patina in the protected areas. The surfaces are overall hard, with just traces of natural planchet roughness in the peripheries. Magnification reveals a concentration of hairline scratches across the lower right reverse, though these are well worn into the aesthetic and go unnoticed to the naked eye. The upper star of this eponymous variety is distinct and sharp, while the lower one is soft but discernible. An attractive and well produced piece. While not a rare variety in an absolute sense, Newman 15-Y is experiences strong demand from collectors to illustrate the 8-Pointed Stars on Label Guide Bookvariety. 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.
