Description
1865 Copper Dies Trial for the Half Dime
Judd-420, PR64 Brown
About Six Pieces Known
1865 H10C Half Dime, Judd-420, Pollock-492, High R.7, PR64 Brown
PCGS. Regular dies trial piece for the half dime of 1865.
Struck in copper with a reeded edge. Like so many other dies trial
pieces from this period it was probably made for sale to
collectors. The issue is extremely rare, however. USPatterns.com
estimates that about six examples are extant. This is an
infrequently offered pattern that comes up at auction about every
four years. The last example we offered was the Queller piece in
January 2009. The surfaces are chocolate-brown and generally
problem-free. The strike is strong on the obverse, but shows the
usual softness on the upper wreath on the reverse.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 60602, Greysheet# 12807)
