1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 63-s, W-5375. Rarity-2. Large Planchet, Plain Shield. VF-20 (PCGS).,135.8 grains. This example is deep olive brown with fine granularity in the fields, while the smoothly worn high points of the designs and legends are light golden brown. Well struck for this shallow design, the centering is nearly perfect with at least hints of denticulation visible around the complete circumference of both sides. It is a strong mid-grade coin that will make a fine entry level example, as it was for Syd nearly a quarter century ago.,PCGS# 509. NGC ID: 25XG.,,<em>From the Syd Martin Collection.
