1786 NJ 1/2P Nar Shld, Str Plow Beam, BN MS (PCGS#45423)

October 2018 Baltimore U.S. Coins Auction

Description du lot: 1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 14-J, W-4810. Rarity-1. Stegosaurus Head. VF-30 (PCGS). A highly appealing mid grade New Jersey copper irrespective of die variety. Both sides are predominantly hard and tight with a satiny texture. Several small marks and pits in and around the central obverse are noted, but otherwise the surfaces are generally smooth in hand with only microscopic signs of handling. Pleasant orange-brown patina with all devices bold apart from minor softness of the plow handles. One of the most frequently encountered die marriages in the New Jersey copper series, Maris 14-J is an excellent candidate for inclusion in a type set of early American coinage. PCGS# 45423.
