1787 Fugio copper, STATES UNITED 4 CINQ (K-13X) ANACS VF-30.

|
Scarcer as a Newman 7-T variety, this Fugio copper also benefits from rock 'em sock 'em eye appeal, due mostly to the lovely contrast between chocolate fields and pecan-brown devices. An amazingly... |

1787 STATES UNITED 4 CINQ FUGIO (Newcomb 13-x). PCGS AU-58.
