i dug this 1787 Fugio cent.best Fugio i dug so far.

:icon_scratch: Wow! Best one so far!!!! LOL. The closest most of us will ever get to one of those is one under glass!!! Fantastic find for sure!

I vote another banner for you!
lol thanks Neil! well this is my 5th one.most are shot.. this came out the sweetest

I think most of these coins were minted in New Haven CT, but some of these coins were actually minted in Waterbury much later, in the 1850's. Any chance that these were the later restrikes?

yeah they were all struck in new haven,ct.only about 400,000 were struck from what i read.i don't think this or my others are re-strikes as the foundations we been hitting are all 1750's to 1790's plus the rings on reverse of re-strikes are narrow as opposed to the wider chain links on my reverse.

Don if you are reading this can you confirm if this is a Newman 15-Y USR 10 rarity?
was talking with LeddeL over phone and from what he could see in his book it's what he determined.he said 200-499 known of this variety.
thanks don if you get time to look
