Description

Judd-412, Pollock-483, is an aluminum striking of the 1865 Nickel Three Cent Piece using the regular production dies. This three-cent design is almost the same as the regular nickel issue; the aluminum piece has not been seen since 1892, and Michael Bourne believes it is the J-414a coin. It is struck in aluminum with a plain edge; USPatterns records it as unique. Catalogued as Judd-412, Pollock-483, A/W 513, Taxay EP409. Cataloged as PCGS #60593.
