The Vermont Copper, minted in 1786, is a notable example of early American colonial coinage. It was produced in the aftermath of the American Revolutionary War when the Vermont Republic sought to establish its own currency before becoming a state. These coins were made from copper and feature various designs, often depicting symbols of liberty or the state’s seal. Vermont Coppers are considered collectible due to their historical significance and limited availability, making them sought after by numismatists and collectors of American coins.
