Description

Unusual 1854 Pattern Cent, Judd-159, Proof 64 Brown

1854 E1C One Cent, Judd-159, Pollock-186, High R.7, PR64 Brown PCGS. A very unusual issue taken from a reduced 1854 silver dollar on the obverse, causing the 4 in the date to look more like a 1 and blurring the central details. The design was created by using a portrait lathe that resulted in many semi-circular patterns on the obverse. On the reverse, 1 CENT is encircled by an oak and acorn wreath. Struck in copper with a plain edge. Only two or three die struck examples are known of this variety. The deep chocolate-brown surfaces show pronounced blue-green accents. A few contact marks are seen at the center of the reverse.(#11654)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2VPG, PCGS# 11654, GSID# 12179)
