1788 NJ 1/2P Head Left, BN MS (PCGS#527)

Winter 2022 U.S. Coins Auction

Lot Description: 1788 New Jersey Copper. Maris 50-f, W-5475. Rarity-3. Head Left. VG-10 BN (NGC). A pleasing circulated representative of this New Jersey copper Guide Booktype, both sides are toned in a bold blend of deep golden-brown and steely-russet. Wear is a little uneven, some of the peripheral areas with waning detail and much of the horse's head soft. The plow, date and much of the reverse lettering is much sharper, and virtually all major design elements are at least discernible. The surfaces are well composed for having seen this extensive circulation. A wholesome VG worthy of serious bidder consideration. PCGS# 527. NGC ID: 2B53.
