Description
1871 Quarter, Struck in Nickel
Judd-1104, PR65 Cameo
Unique in This Metal
1871 25C Quarter Dollar, Judd-1104, Pollock-1240, Unique, PR65
Cameo PCGS.Ex: Simpson. The regular dies issue of 1871, but struck in nickel with a reeded edge. The design was also struck in copper (Judd-1102) and aluminum (Judd-1103). USPatterns.com states the off-metal patterns were made specifically for sale to collectors. Apparently four or five copper examples are extant, while only two or three are known in aluminum. It is believed this strike in nickel is unique. The fields are remarkably reflective for a nickel proof. There is evidence of porosity on each side. Surprisingly well struck, just a bit of localized softness is seen on the high points of the eagle. Light, even patina.
Ex: Waldo Newcomer; Lenox Lohr; Allison Park Collection (ANR, 8/2004), lot 1282.
