1866 Indian Cent in Copper-Nickel
Judd-456, Thin Planchet, PR65

1866 1C One Cent, Judd-456, Pollock-530, Low R.7, PR65 PCGS. Ex: Benson. Eagle Eye Photo Seal. Regular Indian cent die trials issue. Struck in copper-nickel with a plain edge. This is apparently a thin planchet variant. This pattern issue is not without controversy. USPatterns.com believes they were struck on leftover copper-nickel planchets from regular coinage from 1857-1864. The problem with this, however, is the thin planchet seen on this coin. Regular issue copper-nickel cents were struck on thick planchets. Mottled olive-gold patina has a muting effect on the proof finish and the high points of the design are softly defined on the obverse.
Ex: Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 6/2005), lot 7384; Denver Signature (Heritage, 8/2006), lot 1439.
