1786 New Jersey copper. Maris 17-b. Rarity-3. Large planchet. PLUKIBUS. Overstruck on a 1787 Connecticut copper, M. 33.6-KK. VF-35 (PCGS).134.7 grains. Glossy medium brown with choice visual appeal and one of the most spectacular overstrikes we’ve ever seen on this variety. As described in the Spiro sale: “Ex. Fine for coin, Plainly shows legend of Conn. cent 1787 Crosby Type 33-Z. Legend plain. Unusual. Rare.” Indeed, there is not a single word of the Connecticut legend that is not completely visible on either side. The 1787 Connecticut date is perfectly visible, as is most of the punctuation. While the undertype owns most of the extreme peripheries, the parasite controls the centers, with bold definition on the shield and horsehead. The surfaces and color are lovely, and no significant marks are seen. This is a great coin. Die State 2, with the PLUKIBUS characteristic bold.From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. Earlier, from Hans M.F. Schulman’s sale of the Dr. Jacob N. Spiro Collection, March 1955, lot 1459.
