1787 NJ 1/2P Disappearing Knobs, Maris 28-L, BN MS (PCGS#767896)

November 2019 Baltimore Colonial Coins and Americana Auction

详细说明: 1787 New Jersey copper. Maris 28-L. Rarity-3. Outlined Shield. EF-40 (PCGS). 146.0 grains. Glossy medium brown with excellent eye appeal and problem-free surfaces. Nicely centered and well struck, with a thin frame of denticles at the upper right quadrant of the obverse and a bolder arc at the right side of the reverse. There are a few trivial striations, including one above the ears and another after the final A of CAESAREA, but these don't harm the visual appeal a bit. Die State 2, with the plow knobs soft. This is just very nice looking for the grade, probably just a bit below the Condition Census that is topped by two high grade coins (the Mills-Picker-Ish piece and Newman's MS-62 (NGC) that brought $23,500 in 2014), followed by six coins listed as EF. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. PCGS# 767896and 506. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
