- Condition Census Caliber 1787 Maris 52-i 1787 New Jersey copper. Maris 52-i. Rarity-3. Outlined Shield. AU-53 (PCGS). 141.2 grains. Glossy light brown with smooth surfaces, ideal centering, and some frost remaining around the design elements. A beautifully choice example of this variety, free of any kind of substantial defect. A little toning spot above the singletree serves as an identifier. This looks to be of similar quality to the pieces in the heart of the SHI Condition Census, which is topped by the Maris-Garrett coin, now in the Ish Collection and selected as the plate coin in the Siboni, Howes, Ish work. The piece in the March 1973 (not 1978) Stack’s sale of coins from the Appleton-Massachusetts Historical Society Collection looks lovely and may be, as the authors suggest, the same coin Anton reports as an EF. This piece is a near twin for the Eliasberg-Demling coin, the first of four confirmed EF pieces that round out the Condition Census, but your cataloger prefers it to the Boyd-Ford coin that sold to a book bidder. Die State 1, perfect dies. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. PCGS# 766270and 506. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
