1787 Connecticut 1/2p M1.3-L W2735 R6- PCGS G6 MBR IND ET ex-Norman G. Peters

From the Earlycoppercoins PCGS Registry Set.  Pedigreed to the Norman G. Peters collection, sold by Stacks Bowers on 11/30/21 as lot #2039, and described as: “1787 Connecticut Copper. Miller 1.3-L, W-2735. Rarity-6-. Mailed Bust Right, Six-Pointed Star. Good-6 (PCGS).  99.2 grains. A rare and highly sought after variety with a distinctive obverse featuring a six-pointed star in front of the lower edge of mail that is known only in this one combination. This lower grade but pleasant steel-brown example is just lightly microporous and shows no marks or flaws of significance. Just two have been graded at PCGS for the variety.  Provenance: From the Norman G. Peters Collection.”  The coin sold for $900 in that 2021 auction, and I purchased the coin on 01/21/25 for my own collection.  PCGS certification# 686420.06/42629512 with “Six-Pointed Star, Miller 1.3-L” listed on the label.
