1787 Fugio Cent. Pointed Rays. Newman 15-Y, W-6915. Rarity-2. STATES UNITED, 4 Cinquefoils, 8-Pointed Stars on Label. EF-45 (PCGS). Newman Die State B/A. Exceptional Choice EF quality for this distinct and eagerly sought Guide Book variety of the Fugio cent. Both sides are universally bold in detail from a well centered, nicely executed strike that acquired only light wear from commercial use. Circulation was gentle, as well, as the surfaces have come down to the present day without so much as a single troublesome mark. Hard, tight, and also free of significant flan flaws, porosity, and other potential detractions. Wonderfully original in preservation, to boot, we note warm autumn-orange brown patina overall with deeper olive-copper outlines enhancing most of the design elements. No fully Mint State specimens of Newman 15-Y are known, just a few nice AU coins and a handful of choice EFs. This deserves to be counted among their number and should easily find a place in another advanced collection. Provenance: From the Emerald Coast Collection. PCGS# 898. NGC ID: 2B8K.
