Lot 48
1787 New Jersey Copper. Small planchet, plain shield. PCGS graded AU-53. One of the nicest New Jersey coppers you will probably ever find, the color is a delightful chocolate brown, the strike is full and complete, and the surfaces are free of all but the most trivial signs of contact. If all colonials looked like this, they would be a lot more popular! If you demand color, surfaces and strike, then take a look at this coin. You will not be disappointed. One tiny die crack from the V in NOVA to the back of the horse's head, and another lump above the R in PLURIBUS. Do not skip over this lot without taking the time to enjoy it.
Estimated Value $800 - 1,200.
