- 1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 34-J, W-5115. Rarity-3. Deer Head--Overstruck on a 1787 Connecticut Copper--AU-50 (PCGS). 139.9 grains. 29.0 mm. Reverse aligned slightly counterclockwise of proper coin turn. An extremely sharp specimen of this distinctive and popular variety, with exceptional detail on both sides. Mottled olive and brown over somewhat matte surfaces, not quite granular but not glossy and smooth either. The planchet is broad, with a firm strike over a 1787 Connecticut copper that left behind abundant vestiges, including AUCTORI at the right obverse periphery, CONNEC at the left, and a clear four-digit date at the tip of the shield. Denticles frame the upper obverse and just a short arc over the upper left reverse. A short old scratch crosses P of PLURIBUS to the left side of the shield, thin hairline over N of UNUM, no other notable flaws other than some verdigris here and there. An especially crisp example from Die State 1, well detailed and very attractive. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex American Heritage Minting, March 2007. PCGS# 763331.
