1792 Cent Pattern - J-C1792-2

Coin Details

Description

This 1792-dated cent pattern carries the catalog designation J-C1792-2 in the extended Judd numbering system. The piece belongs to the broader family of experimental cent patterns produced at the Philadelphia Mint during the final months of 1792, as officials tested various designs and formats before committing to full-scale production of the large copper cent in 1793. Extremely rare, this variety is among the least documented of the 1792 cent patterns, and surviving examples are virtually undocumented in private hands.
