Lot 82
1786 Vermont Copper. "Vermontensium". PCGS graded EF-40. Choice light brown in color with just a few minor planchet flaws, one near the rim into the mountains, and weakly struck on the reverse at this area too. Well struck on the landscape and plow, with all seven trees clear, and the Sun peaking over the mountains in full view over the lonely plow awaiting the farmer to finish milking the cows. The landscape design proved confusing to the local populace, and soon the coinage began to look more like the British coins then in circulation. Well centered, struck and preserved, and certainly in the top ten percent of those to survive. Don't pass up the many superb colonials offered in this sale.
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,200.
