Michael Demling submitted this note about a new New Jersey copper coin he's created. Cool. -Editor
Yes my Fellow Copper Collectors there is a New New Jersey Copper!! And it is the Square Jersey. A unique creation from a Crazy Jersey Collector. I’ve been
developing this Square Jersey for several years now and finally put my Idea to pen and paper for a sketch of how I envisioned what a square Jersey would look
like (See above sketch)
The background story starts with a interesting Art medal created by the Metallic Art Co. in 1984. They designed, and struck 1/4 and 1/2 ounce silver metals.
I had one of these medals and found them very interesting. Well I figured being a Jersey Copper specialist why not make a Square Jersey? So from sketch to
hunting a mint that could produce this unusual coin just last October my idea became reality.
Here it is Pure Copper~ 31.75mm x31.75mm and comes in two finishes. Raw finish (Proof ) and Antique finish. Very limited production of two hundred copper
and ten silver. Each Square Jersey Copper is signed on the edge by the Artist. Interested parties can obtain this unique copper by writing the creator at
