Description

Unusual 1853 One Cent Pattern Struck in German Silver, Judd-149

1853 E1C One Cent, Judd-149, Pollock-178, R.5, PR64 PCGS. Ex: New Millennium Collection, Part 3. The obverse is the same as that used to coin regular issue 1853 Quarter Eagles. The reverse shows the denomination ONE CENT within a laurel wreath. Struck in a German silver alloy with a reeded edge. A metallurgical analysis is necessary to determine the Judd variety for this type, since the copper-nickel and German silver alloys cannot be distinguished by color. The boldly defined specimen offered here has a thin veil of milky patina and a few trivial flyspecks on the obverse.(#11622)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 299H, PCGS# 11622, GSID# 12167)
