1786 Connecticut copper colonial M5.3-N W2575 HERCULES HEAD NGC F15 EDS Full Date

1786 Connecticut copper, M5.3-N, W2575, Hercules Head, R3.  This coin has been authenticated and graded by NGC as F15, and it's WAY above average for this major Redbook variety.  This variety is commonly seen in a later die state with a buckled reverse that causes the date to disappear, but this is a premium early die state example with a full date.  Excellent surfaces, color, and eye appeal, plus a nice pedigree from The Long Island Collection.  Graded F15 but certainly has valid arguments for a higher grade.  A very nice example of this major Redbook variety.  The Miller 5.3-N attribution is listed on the NGC label along with the pedigree.
