1788 Vermont Copper. RR-29, Bressett 22-U, W-2220. Rarity-5. Bust Right. Very Good to Fine overall, the peripheries sharp, the centers weaker, and the variety is known for weaker central details. The legends are full on either side, the letters mostly strong, and while the date is a shade weaker, it too is visible. The central design details are mostly outlined on either side, with hints of some of the design detail. Medium brown, the surfaces lightly but evenly rough, not deep or disfiguring, especially as the color is good, and there are no appreciable marks from circulation. The dramatic obverse diebreak, extending from the top rim, down the effigy’s forehead and nose and extending out to the R of AUCTORI is bold – this break obviously the reason for the rarity of the variety, as soon it would reach the rims on either end, causing the section of the die with AUCTOR on it to break off completely. The variety is not quite as rare as it was once thought, with a small number of pieces discovered unattributed after the advent of eBay, but it remains one of the three toughest to find in the “20” series of Vermont coppers, ranking just behind the Ryder 26 and 28, but ahead of the Ryder 21 and 22. The variety seldom comes in truly choice condition – though when it does appear nice, the prices are strong. The finest known, an Uncirculated piece from the Ford collection sold for a jaw-dropping $57.500 way back in 2003! The Partrick-Syd Martin coin was called Uncirculated in the former sale where it brought a bit over $15,000; for some reason it was downgraded to an AU in the Martin sale, but still managed a bid of a couple hundred dollars more than it brought in Partrick, grade it what you will it was likely the second finest known for the variety, followed by the Dittmer coin which was graded lower at EF but still managed to bring $20,400 in May 2022. A Fine in Stack’s Bowers August 2021 sale managed $3,360, while a scratched VG with verdigris hit almost $1,100 in the same firm’s January 2012 auction. While certainly not perfect, this is a sharp example with decent eye appeal for the grade, free from manmade damage or defect, and with the diagnostic and dramatic diebreak bold. Try to find a comparable specimen at anywhere near this price! This general type is pictured and listed on Page 57 of the 2024 edition of The Redbook [which has had massive pricing updates, and is now FAR more accurate than it ever has been, even though it resulted in lowering of prices for many common type coins!]. The variety is also listed in the 2020 book on colonials edited by Q. David Bowers, the Whitman Encyclopedia of Colonial and Early American Coins, as W-2220, page 90, where the variety is priced at $1,000 in VG and $2500 in Fine – offered here at FAR LESS MONEY. ALL items we sell are sent via insured mail [or Registered mail for items over $500]. California residents must add appropriate sales tax. The pictures are of the actual coin being offered, and have been enlarged in size to show the detail – and we have included photos in black and white as well. We have over 35 years experience as professional dealers in US colonial coinage – and another 15 years prior to that as collectors of the series as well. As always, we offer a full, no-questions-asked return policy of 30 days after receipt of the coin if it fails to meet your needs in ANY way – AND WE OFFER ONE OF THE STRONGEST RETURN GUARANTEES ON E-BAY, though it has seldom been used; please check out our Feedback Profile or e-mail any comments or questions that you may have. Thank you again for your interest, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
