1787 NJERSY New Jersey Copper, No Sprig Above Plow, Maris 64-t, W-5380, R.1 -- Scratches -- NGC Details. AU. Die alignment: 195°. This well-engraved Morristown Mint variety is distinctive, with its pointed chiefs and horseshoe-shaped U's. The present piece boasts a high technical grade, with a strong strike and lovely coloration, but has a number of scratches on both sides of the coin that justify the designation. A reverse die crack runs through the LU of PLURIBUS. Listed on page 72 of the 2018 Guide Book.
