Description

A set of Confederate States of America Bashlow restrike cents, one each in goldine, silver, and bronze, grading MS 65 to MS 66. The original Confederate cent dies were obtained in the 1960s by Robert Bashlow, who made transfer dies from them (lest the originals break) and struck a series of restrikes in 1961-1962. Raised lumps and ridges are present on the coins, showing that the dies had rusted, cracked, and had been defaced with chisel marks. Mintage was limited to 5,000 goldine pieces, 5,000 silver specimens, and 20,000 bronze examples.
