Description
The proof version of Judd-406 was struck in nickel alloy from the regular 1865 Indian Head cent dies. It is a striking of the regular 1865 Indian Head cent dies in an off metal; USPatterns believes most such pieces of this year were struck for sale to collectors rather than to test the dies. These pieces are traditionally called silver-nickel, but USPatterns doubts they contain silver. It is struck in nickel with a plain edge; USPatterns rates it R-5. Catalogued as Judd-406, Pollock-475, A/W 524. Cataloged as PCGS #60583.
