- 1787 Fugio Copper. Pointed Rays. Newman 8-B, W-6740. Rarity-3. UNITED STATES, 4 Cinquefoils. AU-55 (PCGS).
A handsome and well-preserved example toned in chocolate brown and steely blue shades. Scattered striations in the planchet are visible under scrutiny, though the surfaces remain free of any notable abrasions. Considerable satiny luster shimmers throughout the fields and complements the bold design elements. The marriage is known in three different states, and this piece showcases an intermediate state called B/D by Newman. A straight die crack spans from the obverse rim to the top of the first 7 in the date and a reverse die crack meanders from the reverse rim into ring 10. This piece also exhibits fairly bold clash marks on the reverse at both the upper and lower borders. By Fugio copper standards, Newman 8-B is among the more common varieties and most pieces trace their pedigree to the Bank of New York Hoard, in which some 246 examples resided as late as 1948.
PCGS# 889. NGC ID: 2B8F.
