Description du lot

1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 14-J, W-4810. Rarity-1. Stegosaurus Head. VF-20 (PCGS). OGH. Handsome golden-copper patina with glints of reddish-russet and olive-gray scattered about. A mark in the right obverse field is noted, but otherwise both sides are pleasingly smooth in hand, especially relative to the assigned grade. The strike is tight to the lower obverse and upper reverse borders, but all design elements are clear, and most are bold. A popular New Jersey copper variety for type purposes, offered here in attractive mid-grade preservation. PCGS# 498. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
