Description
1854 Judd-159a Cent, MS61 Brown
Seated Liberty Obverse
1854 E1C One Cent, Judd-159a, Pollock-186, High R.6, MS61 Brown
NGC. An unusual pattern variety. The obverse die was made by
crudely reducing an 1854 silver dollar with a lathe, causing
prominent concentric die lines and blurry design details. The date
resembles 1851. The reverse shows 1 CENT encircled by an oak and
acorn wreath. Struck in copper with a plain edge. Judd-159 is a
formidable rarity but its electrotype copper counterpart Judd-159a
is somewhat more available. Designated as Mint State, but both NGC
and PCGS have also certified examples as proof. Predominantly toned
deep chocolate-brown, although crimson-red outlines the devices and
legends. The well preserved obverse has blurry features and a faint
target pattern (as made) on the seated Liberty. The lightly abraded
reverse is comparatively sharp.Ex: New York Signature (Heritage, 11/2003), lot 11009; PNG New York Invitational (Heritage, 10/2014), lot 4153.
