1863 Two Cents in Copper-Nickel
Judd-306, PR65
1863 2C Two Cents, Judd-306, Pollock-371, High R.7, PR65
PCGS. Ex: Simpson. The obverse displays a portrait of
Washington facing right, GOD AND OUR COUNTRY around, date and two
stars below. The reverse expresses the denomination 2 CENTS within
a wheat wreath, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around. CENTS is curved
dramatically. Struck in copper-nickel with a plain edge. This
pattern was struck in a surprising variety of compositions: copper
/ bronze, copper-nickel, oroide, and aluminum. The creation of this
pattern obviously was a reflection of the popularity of all manner
of Washingtonia in the late-1850s and early-1860s. Fewer than a
dozen copper-nickel examples are known, only the aluminum strikings
are rarer. For a copper-nickel pattern, this piece displays a
remarkable amount of red patina with an undertone of yellow. Only
the slightest specks of carbon prevent a higher grade.Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
