1787 Connecticut Miller 33.38-gg Rarity-6 F12. Draped Bust Left type. Sharpness EF40 but covered with fine to moderate granularity under slightly glossy chocolate brown toning. No verdigris, but there are some tiny pits at the head of the seated figure on the reverse. Great detail for this variety, better than the Perkins example (Perkins:427) that was called "probably second finest known." The date is complete and the legends are clear. Listed on page 62 in the "Redbook." Weight 131.8 grains.
Estimated Value $100-UP.
