Description
(1837) Cent, Struck in German Silver
Judd-C 1837-1, MS64
(1837) 1C One Cent, German Silver, Judd-C1837-1, Private Issue,
MS64 PCGS. CAC. The obverse legend has ONE CENT within an olive
wreath, surrounded by a circle of dots. The reverse is similar but
from a different die. This is a "two tails" pattern with slightly
differing arrangements on each side. One side has 26 leaves and 15
berries, while the other side has 21 larger leaves and 13 berries.
Struck in German silver, or "Feuchtwanger's composition" as
suggested on USPatterns.com (which would, of course, be the same
thing). Plain edge. Only four or five pieces are believed known,
and this is the finest. This piece was most likely struck outside
the Mint, and seems to be related to the Hard Times tokens of the
1830s and 1840s. The fields are not as striated as those on two
other examples we have seen. A distinctive patch of russet toning
distinguishes this piece, and is located just above the T in CENT
on the reverse.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 673866)
