Description
1859 Indian Cent in Copper-Nickel
Type of 1860, Judd-228, PR66
1859 1C Indian Cent, Judd-228, Pollock-272, R.1, PR66 PCGS.
The transitional Pointed Bust Type of 1860 but dated 1859. The
reverse displays the oak wreath and shield design first struck for
circulation on 1860 cents, instead of the simpler laurel wreath
reverse used on business strike 1859 cents. Struck in copper-nickel
with a plain edge. Also struck in copper (and much scarcer as
such), there is no doubt about the alloy of this piece as it
retains much of the original tan-honey color these pieces showed
when new. The fields are moderately reflective, certainly enough
mirroring is present to distinguish this from a more commonly seen
business strike variant of the same pattern design.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 11934, Greysheet# 12367)
