1786 New Jersey Maris 17-J Rarity-4 G5+. Small Planchet, Straight Plow Beam, Wide Shield. The obverse is VG7 or better but the reverse is weaker, as usual on this variety, and grades only G4. The surfaces are smooth and the toning is a very attractive glossy medium chocolate brown with lighter steel brown toning on the devices. The date and obverse legends are easily readable but much of the legend on the reverse is weak or faint. There are a couple light scratches on both sides and a shallow dent in the bottom of the shield. Overall the eye appeal of this piece is quite nice for the grade and the smooth planchet is a big plus. Listed on page 69 in the "Redbook." Weight 112.3 grains. Estimated Value $150-UP.
