1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 12-G, W-4790. Rarity-4. Date Under Plow

1786 New Jersey Copper. Maris 12-G, W-4790. Rarity-4. Date Under Plow, No Coulter, Shaggy Mane. VF-20 (PCGS). SHI Die State DS2. The dies are in nearly perfect medallic alignment, the reverse rotated just a few degrees counterclockwise. As one of the few No Coulter varieties that is more common than Rarity-6, the Maris 12-G is often chosen to represent the distinctive No Coulter type. This example is nicer than most, with generally mark-free, golden-brown surfaces and pale rose highlights. Small, shallow planchet fissures drift through the centers on both sides, and close inspection with a loupe reveals a hint of microgranularity overall. The horse's head is bold for the grade, the base of the neck soft due to die state. Centering is good, and the overall design is fully appreciable. Provenance: From the Emerald Coast Collection. PCGS# 494. NGC ID: AUKY. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
