1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 37-f, W-5155. Rarity-4. Outlined Shield, Goiter. VG-10.,157.7 grains. Light olive brown and quite attractive as such, though one occasionally encounters examples of Maris 37-f that were struck on high quality planchets and that retained their high quality surfaces over the centuries. The wear is uneven, rendering the obverse legend as VA CAES, leaving the date strong and the important "Goiter" break clear; on the reverse, the legends read *E*PLUR UN, while the shield is fully outlined if also uneven in its remaining detail. A fully dated, choice example of this <em>Red Book </em>type.<em>From the Syd Martin Coll</em><em>ection. Earlier Ex R</em><em>osa Americana Fixed Price List #15, lot 347. </em>
