Lot Title:
|
1787 Newman 4-E "club rays" Fugio copper, VF-20, rim clip
|
|
Description:
|
A mint made rim clip at 2:00 has removed a portion of the planceht above the first two digits of the date, but from the standpoint of quality and grade, this is a lovely early copper coin. Traditional grading standards should qualify this coin as grading "very fine", though encapsulation would likely garner a grade very close to "extremely fine". All the Roman numerals on the face of the dial are present, though a couple on the right side are a bit weak. The sun and associated rays are sharp, and despite the rim clip and a slightly off-center reverse strike, every link in the chain is prominently displayed. A fabulous early coin!
This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
