1875 Twenty Cent, Gorgeous PR66 Cameo
Judd-1410 Struck in Nickel

1875 20C Twenty Cents, Judd-1410, Pollock-1553, R.8, PR66 Cameo NGC. The obverse die for this pattern is similar to the regular-issue twenty cent piece of 1875, save that the date appears in slightly smaller numerals and LIBERTY is incused rather than raised. The reverse shows an open wreath encircling 1/5 OF A DOLLAR with the issuing country and denomination around the periphery. Struck in nickel with a plain edge. This is a simply gorgeous example with well-contrasted surfaces showing tinges of the palest yellow-green and pastel pinkish-blue in the centers. Only three examples are confirmed of this rare pattern. The population data appear to contain duplications, but this is likely the sole finest survivor of this issue.

Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 535136, Base PCGS# 61717, Greysheet# 373322)
