Description
1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 54-k, W-5295. Rarity-3. No Sprig Above Plow, Serpent Head. VF-35 (PCGS).
Always a popular Maris number, and represented here by an impressively smooth, well struck example. The planchet is nicely made with only a single notable flaw in the date area on the obverse, although this just misses involving the first 7 and affects no other digits. Marbled deep autumn and gray-brown patina to both sides with all major design elements bold. There are no detracting marks, and a trace of microscopic surface scale associated with the latter color is mentioned solely for accuracy. All in all, a pleasing mid grade example of this eagerly sought New Jersey copper Guide Book variety.
PCGS# 518. NGC ID: 2B4W.
Estimate: $1000
