    The local Police Department will probably get a restraining order against you if you continue to photograph raw coppers! image

    I just bought this from the post auction list at Stacks New York Americana sale.

    From the cataloguer:

    Lot 5968 - 1787 New Jersey copper. Maris 42-c, W-5210. Rarity-5+. Fine-12. 144.0 grains. Nice deep olive brown with slightly lighter devices. Scattered pitting is seen on the obverse, more evenly and finely granular on the reverse. Full legends and date, really not a bad Maris 42-c. The finest known of this variety is just VF.

    From the Joel Geoffrey Collection

    A short Lincoln date run. Notice the difference in how the beard is portrayed from year to year. Shag

    This arrived yesterday. Raw example.. it really helps get in better/closer to the coin - I am convinced plastic diffuses the light significantly.
