- 1787 New Jersey copper. Maris 43-d. Rarity-1. Outlined Shield. EF-45+ (PCGS). 155.4 grains. A particularly desirable example of this often encountered variety, showing a spectacular die crack at the lower left of the shield on the reverse, the terminal state of this biennial die. This crack appears after the thin crack that connects BUS of PLURIBUS, a characteristic that is deemed definitive for Die State 3. A small break is present at the lower right border of the shield, and a short crack extends from the swelling on the lower left of the shield into the field toward the star between E and PLURIBUS. Aside from die state interest, this is a glossy and attractive coin with rich chocolate brown surfaces and superb visual appeal. The central obverse shows some planchet texture, left behind when the broken reverse failed to offer the obverse enough oppositional striking pressure. Well centered and sharp, this is the perfect excuse to add a duplicate Maris 43-d to your collection. Provenance: From the E Pluribus Unum Collection of New Jersey Coppers. PCGS# 763359and 506.
