1783 Nova Constellatio Pattern Purchased At The Happy Coin

One of the very first U.S. coins ever made or designed for production, The Happy Coin is excited to come across a 1783 Nova Constellatio Pattern Coin. Our example, a 5-Unit copper coin, is particularly interesting as it is the only copper coin in the series (the others all being made out of silver).

In the video, we go over a lot of the relevant background on these amazing examples of American numismatic history and discuss their lasting effects on the future of the U.S. monetary system.
