- 1786 New Jersey copper. Maris 17-K. Rarity-3. Straight Plow Beam. Overstruck on a Connecticut copper. VF-35 (PCGS). 130.3 grains. A gloriously choice New Jersey copper, just picture-perfect in every way. The surfaces are smooth, hard, and glossy, displaying an ideal shade of light brown. The obverse centering is spot-on perfect, leaving every denticle present. The reverse shows the die edge at right, but the centering is nearly as good as the obverse. The slight softness and dimple in the upper central portion of the shield is typical of the variety. The undertype is both boldly overstruck and still visible in places. RI. of AUCTORI is visible directly over the 1786 date of the New Jersey copper, the C of the same word is visible at the end of the plow bar, and a few hints are seen on the reverse also. A few splashes of darker toning on the reverse are no detriment to this very pretty copper. Struck from the perfect state of the reverse, Die State 1, the usual state. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. PCGS# 767907 and 45423. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
