Description
The 1867 Proof Nickel Pattern - J-583 is a proof five-cent pattern struck outside the Mint from Mint dies, as USPatterns.com believes, part of the Reconstruction Era Patterns (1866-1869) series. It pairs the 1867 Liberty head with a star on the coronet with the regular reverse without rays. Judd lists it in silver with a plain edge, and USPatterns.com rates it R-8. USPatterns.com ties these pieces to dies Joseph Mickley bought from the Mint as scrap; many of them went into the Crosby collection. USPatterns.com knows one. It is catalogued as Judd-583, Pollock-643, Adams-Woodin 624. Cataloged as PCGS #60795.
