Description
Intriguing General Motors Pattern Cent
Pollock-4060, MS62 Red and Brown
Undated (ca. 1967) General Motors Pattern Cent, Pollock-4060,
R.5, MS62 Red and Brown. This interesting pattern features a
layout similar to Wheat cents, but with a rendering of Liberty on
the obverse. The legends do not have any meaning. Struck in copper
with a plain edge. A control code was etched into each obverse die,
which enabled the General Motors researchers to identify which die
pair struck each coin. This piece is 28-L. Flashy luster radiates
beneath the mixed red and medium-brown patina. The strike is soft,
as usual, and there are only a couple of inconsequential marks. An
attractive example of this unusual pattern.
