Colonial America. Connecticut. 1787. Copper. Miller 37.9-e. VERY GOOD-10. Rare, AW counterstamp. 

Ex New England Rare Coin Auctions 1976, lot 135. 

The Wyler book of Old Silver has a silversmith's mark, a small rectangle with AW for Antipas Woodward, Middletown, Conn., from about 1791. That is probably his mark.Of special interest is that Antipas Woodward was "Sealer of Weights and Measures" for the town of Plymouth Connecticut in the 1890's, which may be tied to this counterstamp.
