Lot 19
1787 Connecticut Miller 31.1-gg.1 Rarity-3 Draped Bust. Left EF40. An ET LIR Variety. Frosty medium brown and light olive. Mint luster remains visible in the fields and protected areas. There is very little actual wear but the central devices are covered with tiny pre-striking planchet chips that blunt those details. Otherwise this piece is choice in every respect. Nicely centered on the planchet. The date and legends are complete and strong. Late die state, clearly later than the Perkins or Ford examples, with swelling and die cracks on both sides. A premium example, most likely in the condition census. Weight 129.9 grains.
Estimated Value $500-UP.
