- 1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 16-L, W-4840. Rarity-2. Protruding Tongue. VF-30 (PCGS). A highly unusual example, this coin was struck from an advanced die state that is unknown to specialists. (For example, it is not recorded in the 2013 New Jersey copper reference by Siboni, Howes and Ish.) Both sides show evidence of severe die injury and bulging, which features are most prominent in the upper left obverse field and on the reverse over and around the shield. Glossy medium brown surfaces with no post-striking blemishes of note. A intriguing piece worthy of additional study. Provenance: From our (Bowers and Ruddy') Springfield Collection sale, Part I, September 1981, lot 1706; McCawley & Grellman's Ninth Annual C-4 Convention Sale of November 2003, lot 392. C-4 sale lot tag and collector envelope with attribution and provenance notes included. PCGS# 521268. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
