- "1787" (ca. 1860) Fugio Copper. "New Haven Restrike". Newman 104-FF, W-17560. Rarity-3. Brass. AU-53 (PCGS).
138.8 grains. The rich mustard coloration of this "restrike" is accented by olive patina in the protected areas. The strike is uniformly bold and well-centered, complemented by overall smooth fields. Magnification reveals a collection of hairline scratches behind MIND YOUR BUSINESS at the lower obverse, though these have long been worn into the surfaces and go unnoticed to the naked eye. A patch of crimson coloration on each side will be helpful in tracing this piece through future cabinets.
Provenance: From the Cohasco Collection of Colonials formed by Sir Philip H. Snyder, circa 1963-68.
PCGS# 919.
