1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 21-R, W-4925. Rarity-7-. Narrow Shield, Curved Plow Beam. Fine-12 (PCGS). 143.8 grains. 28.0 mm.<p><p>From our November 2019 E Pluribus Unum Collection sale, where it was described as:<p><p>"A new discovery for this rare variety, apparently the 12th known example. The SHI Condition Census of this rarity lists 11 known specimens, ranging from the VF- Boyd-Ford-Partrick coin at the top end to a pair of About G- specimens at the bottom. This piece is similar in quality to the Maris-Garrett-Picker specimen, ranked second finest, and may be similar to the F+ specimens in the Dick August and New Jersey Historical Society collections. The surfaces are dark brown with attractive lighter brown contrasting tone on devices and legends. The surfaces are finely and evenly granular but maintain good gloss and eye appeal. Some old toned pinscratches cross the base of the horsehead device and the snout, and an old pit is noted between BU of PLURIBUS. The centering is nearly ideal on both sides, and the strike is even. There is no detail within the shield (typical of worn specimens of this variety) and the die state is perfect, as usual. The die rotation is a few degrees clockwise of standard coin turn. <p><p>This variety, a marriage of known dies, was discovered sometime between 1881 and 1886, making it a Maris-unlisted variety that Maris actually owned and offered in the 1886 sale of his collection. With the addition of this piece to the 11 enumerated by Siboni, Howes, and Ish, it means the bottom limit of the Rarity-7 category. The next Maris 21-R to be discovered will make this variety Rarity-6+. However, if the most recently discovered specimens are a guide, the next discovery is unlikely to be as nice as this coin; the last two coins include a piece with a large square hole and another described as looking like it had been underground for a long time with considerable corrosion on both sides. The last two discoveries rank 11th and 12th among the 12 known."<p><p>Since this piece was acquired, something rather unexpected happened to Maris 21-R: it got rarer. The Partrick collection of New Jersey coppers was sold in March 2021. It included the piece listed as finest known, ex Ford, graded NGC VF Details, Cleaned, which brought $38,400. The Partrick collection also included the Spiro-Oechsner coin, listed seventh in the SHI Census, graded NGC VG Details, Tooled. Partrick was not listed as the owner of that coin in the SHI Census, but he was listed as having a Good (with no other provenance listed), ranked ninth. Its clear that the SHI listings #7 and #9 are actually the same coin, meaning instead of there being 12 of these, as we thought in November 2019, there are actually just 11.<p><p>This is one of two examples weve sold since the 2003 Ford sale. The other, the Mills-Frontenac-Dr. Gordon Shaw coin, had been neatly turned into a love token. Ranked eight in the SHI Census, it brought $14,100. Based upon the relative prices realized between this coin ($43,200) and the top-ranked Partrick coin in 2021, the marketplace liked this wholesome and problem free specimen better. PCGS# 767883. From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from our sale of the E Pluribus Unum Collection, November 2019, lot 6056.
