1787 Connecticut Miller 1.2-C R3 The "Muttonhead" variety VF25

Sharper but there are some fine scratches on both sides plus numerous small splashes of reddish brown toning sprinkled over the obverse. An arc of darker brown toning at K-10 on the reverse can help identify this piece. The remainder of the planchet is glossy light brown. Later die state with obvious swelling behind the seated figure. The date is only partially present thanks to having been lightly entered into the die followed by excessive die polishing. Weight 149.1 grains.
