1787 Immunis Columbia with Eagle Reverse AU50

Very attractive frosty light chocolate brown. Satiny frost shows in the protected areas and this piece has exceptional eye appeal. Looks mint state but there is a touch of friction on the highest points of the devices. The only mark, and it is trivial, is a small rim nick at the lower star on the left side of the reverse. A premium example of this very rare early colonial copper that is believed to have been a prototype for early Federal coinage. Weight 171.3 grains.
