Description
MS62 Brown 1871 Three Cent Nickel
Struck on Cent Stock
Possible Judd-1045
1871 3CN Three Cent Nickel--Struck on Cent Stock--MS62 Brown
NGC. 2.8 gm. Years ago, the present lot would have been
cataloged as an example of the extremely rare Judd-1045, a trial
piece struck in copper. USpatterns.com describes Judd-1045 as
"fewer than a half dozen believed to exist. At least one of these
is a business strike - possibly a mint error on miscut cent stock."
Whether regarded as a pattern or a mint error, the present piece is
undeniably rare. It is toned deep chocolate-brown with smooth
semi-prooflike surfaces and a bold strike.
