- 1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 56-n, W-5310. Rarity-1. Camel Head--Overstruck on a 1787 Connecticut Copper--VF-30 (PCGS). Pleasing medium brown, mostly smooth, with good overall eye appeal. A substantial planchet flaw at the base of the reverse created a pit atop the obverse, an interesting aspect, though some newer scrapes are seen within it. Very well centered on both sides. The only real trace of undertype is inside the shield. A bit of the top of the Connecticut shield is seen, which Syd believed most resembled 1787 Reverse D or 1787 Reverse S. While it looks considerably like S to us, presumably the "Fatal Break" from that Connecticut reverse would manifest here somewhere if so. This one is solvable with patience. Die State 2, with both breaks. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex Christopher B. Young, October 2007. PCGS# 767837. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
