Description
1864 No L Indian Cent in Copper-Nickel
Judd-356b, Snow-PT1c, PR65
Struck on a Thin Planchet
1864 1C No L Indian Cent, Judd-356b, Pollock-426a, Snow-PT1c,
R.7, PR65 NGC. The regular dies for the 1864 Indian cent
without Longacre's initial L, struck in copper-nickel with a plain
edge on a thin planchet. Examples of Judd-356b typically weigh
approximately 50 grains, much less than the standard 72 grains for
a copper-nickel Indian cent. Rick Snow states that Judd-356b
"proofs are [from] the same dies as 1864 CN PR1 [the regular-issue
copper-nickel proof 1864 cent] and have a die alignment [of] 170
degrees," as is the case with the present lot. Snow continues,
"PCGS did not grade these until 2009 as they considered them to be
minting errors instead of patterns." USPatterns.com excerpts a
March 17, 1864 letter from Mint Director James Pollock to Treasury
Secretary Salmon P. Chase concerning pattern copper-nickel cents
with a 48-grain weight. The present fully struck Gem displays dusky
sun-gold and peach shades across reflective fields. Housed in a
circa-2000 holder.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 408872, Greysheet# 375428)
