1864 Cent Pattern - P-425

Coin Details

Description

Pollock-425 is a cent pattern cataloged in the Pollock reference system but lacking a standard Judd number, indicating it was identified after the initial Judd catalog was published. This supplementary catalog entry represents a previously unrecognized die combination or metallic composition that was discovered through examination of pattern collections and dealer inventories. Such supplementary entries are important for completing the record of 1864 cent experimentation, which was one of the most intensive alloy-testing programs in US Mint history.

Rarity Notes

Very rare. As a supplementary catalog entry, population data is limited. Pollock-only numbers are typically known from only a handful of specimens.
