1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 16-L, W-4840. Rarity-2. Protruding Tongue. Fine-12 Porous.，144.6 grains. The strike is well centered and this copper retains uniformly bold definition to the major design elements. Both sides exhibit a blend of deep olive-copper and lighter rose-brown patina over surfaces that are rough in texture. Minor edge nick just past 6 oclock relative to the reverse. The Protruding Tongue feature is readily evident, confirming this as one of the boldest naked eye varieties in the New Jersey copper series.，PCGS# 498.，，Cardboard 2x2 with (incorrect) attribution notation included.
