The 1870 Proof Cent Pattern - J-789 is a proof cent pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Standard Silver Patterns (1870) series. It was struck from the regular 1870 Indian Head cent dies. USPatterns.com has not confirmed a nickel striking and suggests one might be a mint error on a nickel three-cent planchet. Judd lists it in nickel with a plain edge. It is also catalogued as Pollock-876 and Adams-Woodin 1075. Cataloged as PCGS #61032.
