1859 Indian Cent in Copper-Nickel
Judd-228, MS64
Transitional Shield Reverse
1859 P1C Indian Cent, Judd-228, Pollock-272, R.1, MS64 PCGS.
A transitional variety with the Pointed Bust and Shield reverse of
1860, but dated 1859. Struck in copper-nickel with a plain edge.
Dealers and collectors have argued for decades that Judd-228 should
be listed in the Guide Book as a regular issue, since its
rarity is similar to the 1856 Flying Eagle cent, which was also
struck in both proof and business formats. One difference is that
Judd-228 is almost never encountered in grades below AU50. The
present Choice cent has apricot-gold color with hints of rose-red.
The strike is crisp, contact is absent, and the scattered carbon
flecks require a loupe to locate.Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 6/2014), lot 5534.
