Description: These are TWO troy ounce .999 fine silver rounds created by intaglio Mint. The 1786 New Jersey Copper tribute commemorative thick round is uncirculated with very high relief. Pictures are typical of the round you will receive. As with many of the Colonials, the New Jersey Copper has a very interesting story behind its creation. In 1786, the New Jersey Legislature authorized three men to mint three million coins at a weight of 150 grains each. In return, the state would receive a 10% royalty. The coppers were to circulate 15 coppers to one shilling, and were to be produced within the state. At the time, the design had not been resolved. The legislation only stated that they were to have “Marks and Inscriptions as shall be directed by the Justices of the Surpreme Court, or any one of them. During the course of the creation of this coin, there were multiple lawsuits filed, even an incarceration.The obverse of the copper displayed a plow beneath a horse head facing right with the legend NOVA CÆSAREA (as on the state coat of arms) and the date. The use of “CÆSAREA” is based on the ancient classical name for the Island of Jersey in the English Channel. In Roman times this island was called Caesar’s Island (insula Caesarea) so when latinizing the state name, the word “Jersey” was transformed to “Caesarea.” The 1688 indenture issued by Charles II called the colony “Nova Caesarea, of New Jersey.” The reverse of the coin depicted an American shield that is similar to one used on some of the confederation patterns along with the national motto as the legend, E PLURIBUS UNUM (One from many). New Jersey coppers were the first coins to bear the national motto.If you don't have now of these then I know you need one in your collection.
