1788 Vermont Copper. RR-25, Bressett 16-U, W-2195. Rarity-2. Bust

1788 Vermont Copper. RR-25, Bressett 16-U, W-2195. Rarity-2. Bust Right. VF-20 (PCGS). We note a hint of trivial roughness in places, but the surfaces are generally hard, satiny, and boast handsome toning in medium brown and olive-copper. Original planchet roughness remains in the softly struck centers, detail bolder toward the borders where we note fully legible legends and a complete date, although the bottoms of the digits are somewhat obscured by a shallow, meandering flan flaw at the lower reverse border. Obverse impression off center to 1 o'clock, border lightly engaging the tops of the letters AU in AUCTORI, reverse better centered, yet devoid of denticulation with the tops of most letters fading into the border. There are no post-production distractions to report, and both the overall design and the diagnostics of this Ryder number are appreciable. PCGS# 563. NGC ID: 2B5D.
