- 1786 New Jersey copper. Maris 25-S. Rarity-5+. Straight Plow Beam. VF-20 (PCGS). 131.1 grains. Light brown and gray with some gloss and good eye appeal for the grade. Lightly striated on both sides, as struck, but well detailed. The obverse is aligned left, with denticles visible at right but none at left; the reverse is ideally centered. There is a tiny rim bruise under the date and a single hairline through 17, but no other post striking flaws. Die State 2, with some swelling visible in the lower right obverse field. This is a well above average example of this elusive variety. The SHI Condition Census lists an EF at the New Jersey Historical Society as the best Maris 25-S, but the other six coins listed are all one sort of VF or other, including the Maris-Garrett coin and the Boyd-Ford coin, ranked sixth, which was not all that much nicer than this one. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. PCGS# 767886and 45423. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
