1875 Proof Cent Pattern - J-1383
Strike TypeCoin Details
Description
The 1875 Proof Cent Pattern - J-1383 is a proof cent pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Metric & Stella Patterns (1874-1879) series. It was struck from the regular 1875 Indian Head cent dies. USPatterns.com believes the 1875 off-metal pieces from regular dies were struck on purpose for sale to collectors in complete sets, cent through double eagle, in copper and aluminum. Pollock does not list a copper striking because it cannot be told from a bronze one without analysis; USPatterns.com traces an example shown by Judson Brenner at the 1914 ANS exhibition and records one graded by PCGS. It is struck in copper with a plain edge. USPatterns.com rates it R-8. It is also catalogued as Adams-Woodin 1462. Pollock does not list it. Cataloged as PCGS #61690.
