Description
This is Bashlow's 1961 copy of the Confederate cent in zinc. In 1961, the centennial of the Civil War, the New York dealer Robert Bashlow had transfer dies made from Lovett's defaced cent dies and struck pieces in many metals; the defacing marks show on them. Accounts differ on how many were struck in each metal. The original dies went to the Smithsonian Institution. PCGS number 966106.
