    Found this in my bin of pre-1850 unsorted world coppers.
    7.0 g, ~28 mm
    Ob: AUCTORI: CONNEC:
    Rev: INDE ET LIB 1787
    Could this be a Connecticut Pre-Federal token, such as this "draped bust facing left"?
    Any help with the ID and authenticity would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

    There should be enough detail to identify the variety. It sometimes takes a little time though.

    It is not the same as the one Michael K posted, both dies are different. I've never done much with the CT coppers. With over 350 varieties it is just more of a challenge than I want to take on.

    Looks to be a 46-BB, which is a little better variety. I think it is currently listed as an R-5, which is approximately 31-75 known.
