Description du lot

1788 New Jersey Copper. Maris 75-bb. Rarity-4. Head Right, Running Fox Before Legend. VF-25 (PCGS). Lovely chocolate-brown surfaces that are smooth, glossy, and undeniably choice. Well made with a nicely centered and balanced strike that allows for full appreciation of the motifs, date, legends, die breaks, and the all-important "running fox." Nice examples of Maris 75-bb are relatively available but this coin still stands out as a far above average piece for the grade. Perfect for the quality-conscious collector of New Jersey coppers by either type or die variety. Provenance: From the Norman G. Peters Collection. PCGS# 783095.
