1787 COPPER New Jersey Copper, No Sprig above Plow VF30 NGC. M. 32-T, W-5100, R.2. 137.3 grains. The Maris 32-T is a plentiful variety in the context of New Jersey coppers, and it is an ideal candidate for the non-specialist who only seeks two or three examples to represent the New Jersey coinage in a colonial type set. Collectors who are interested in a colonial coin carrying the Eric P. Newman provenance will also want to consider this lot. Both sides have pleasing olive-brown surfaces with grade-consistent handling marks, showing hints of steel and delicate blue overtones. The strike is nicely centered with about half the border details visible. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
