Description
Zinc-Plated Steel 1942 Pattern Cent
Judd-2054, MS62
1942 1C Cent, Judd-2054, Pollock-2074, High R.7, MS62 PCGS.
This wartime variety was part of an effort to replace the copper in
the cent alloy with a less-critical metal. The obverse motif is
borrowed from a KM-198 Columbia two centavos. The reverse wreath is
from a Baker-155 Washington medalet. Patterns were produced in
various materials, but the present alloy was the one used for 1943
cent coinage. Struck in zinc-coated steel with a plain edge. Nicely
struck and unabraded with a vertical roller mark (as made) behind
Liberty's eye and one small spot each on the cheek and the second S
in STATES.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 62401)
