1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 46-e (R-1). Large Planchet, Plain Shield. PCGS XF Details, Environmental Damage. Balanced shades of medium brown patina bathe the surfaces on either side. Hints of microgranularity are present, as are a small verdigris stain in the right obverse field, as well as some light evidence of corrosion at the upper right reverse rim; thus the details grade by PCGS. The overall presentation nonetheless is quite appealing , and it would not be a simple task to duplicate the quality of this specimen.
Ex Hoke S. Greene Collection (June 1985), Bowers and Merena: 430.
