Guys, I had to go back! After I Put up todays finds I went back again and WOW. Another NJ copper and two other coppers. I may have a third NJ still looking as the detail is rough. Found what looks to be a 1 reale, and a 1908 Barber dime. What a day!


Don, hopefully you can ID the second one.

Don, nice going on getting two in one day and possibly one more too boot. I think I have your 2nd one ID'd but awaiting 3 friends to confirm my it, since due to the dirt in certain areas on the plow side I am 99% sure but want verification before I say the variety. See if you see a PERIOD below the last letter A in CAESAREA....
 
OK, got verification from one of the three, so going with it, your 2nd NJ for the day is a 1787 Maris 53-j variety, Rarity 4 (Scarce). There is only one reverse with the Obverse side of M.53, so the reverse is a j die variety , thus the M.53-j. 1787 New Jersey Copper - Maris 53-j (for an example) Also blew up the ground photo of that coin which I then used to ID variety.
