1787 New Jersey Copper. Maris 39-a, W-5195. Rarity-2. EF-40 (PCGS).Lovely medium brown color and glossy surfaces contribute to the nice eye appeal of this example. Struck on a flawed planchet which has resulted in numerous tiny marks that initially look like nicks, but are actually better described as natural planchet roughness that did not strike out, a feature not uncommon on this Maris variety. Well centered and a fairly even impression with a the date both fully on the flan and nicely developed, desirable characteristics that are not often seen on the 39-a.
