<B>1787 PIECE Immunis Columbia Piece, Eagle Reverse MS64 Brown PCGS.</B></I> Crosby Pl. VIII, 8, Breen-1137. Breen believed this scarce issue was originally intended as a pattern for Continental Congress coinage. Later, it was struck for circulation, possibly at the Rahway Mills private mint in New Jersey. This medium brown example is sharply struck and uncommonly smooth. Luster glimmers throughout the major devices. A light die crack descends from the eagle's beak, and dentils are clashed onto the reverse border near 9 o'clock. Most survivors are in worn condition, and the present lot ranks among the finest known. NGC and PCGS have certified a combined total of three pieces as MS64 Brown, with none finer.
