1787 New Jersey copper 1/2p M55-l W5300 R4+ PLURIRUS Error PCGS F15 James E. Blake

From the Heritage sale of the James E. Blake collection on 09/05/23, where this was lot #93121, and was not described in that auction.  The coin has a nice mixture of peanut butter tan brown with a splash of dark strawberry jam at the right obverse and left reverse.  The PLURIRUS errors is clear to the naked eye, and for the R4+ M55-l variety, this is actually a decent mid-grade example.  From The James E. Blake Collection of United States Colonial Coins & Tokens.   This coin realized just $960 in that auction, and I am asking $2,350 based off the PCGS price guide value of $2,750 for this coin, because incredibly, this is the second highest graded example at PCGS, with only a VF20 in front of it.  That VF20 also has similar dark toning on left obverse, and it sold for $2,640 at Stacks in Augst of 2022.  The PCGS label includes "PLURIRUS, Maris 55-l," coin# 767836.15/37291044.  This example was purchased to go straight into my personal PCGS Registry Set collection, where it will stay until I can upgrade it.
