<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1691495, member: 66&quot;]NJ became a State in 1783 when the treaty ending the Revolutionary War was signed.&nbsp; At that point it stopped being a colony and became a State under the Articles of Confederation.&nbsp; The December 1787 date was the date it ratified the Constitution.&nbsp; Under the Articles of Confederation the States had the right to issue their own coinage, this coinage was supposed to be based on standards passed by the Continental Congress.&nbsp; Under the Constitution, which they ratified in December NJ, could not legally issue it&#039;s own coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
