Description

A 1787 Connecticut copper variety with the obverse legend reading CONNFC instead of CONNEC. The F-for-E substitution is one of the more common legend errors in the series. This variety pairs the draped bust left obverse with the standard seated Liberty reverse.

Rarity Notes

Moderately scarce.
