^Lot 157 1787 Connecticut Miller 33.9-s.2 R2 DBL, PCGS graded AU50

Glossy medium brown and light chocolate with speckles of dark olive on both sides, mostly inside the tiny planchet chips and fissures. The only notable planchet flaws are a small void high on the bust, a shallow one in the dentils above OR in AUCTORI, and another on the edge at the right side of the O in CONNEC. Otherwise just lightly worn with no notable contact marks. Very late die state with extensive die rust on the reverse and numerous die cracks on both sides. The rust is so severe that it distorts the numerals in the date. A neat die state for an otherwise common die variety. Weight 134.6 grains. The attribution and Robert M. Martin Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. (The front of the holder is scratched.)
