Description du lot

<strong>Obv:</strong> A bust of Liberty faces left with the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the border and the date 1868 below. Liberty is wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY, the design similar to that used for regular issue nickel three-cent piece production from 1865 through 1889. The date is placed high in the field. <strong>Rev:</strong> A laurel wreath surrounds a Roman numeral I. An untoned specimen with fully impressed devices and modestly reflective fields. The <em>uspatterns.com</em> website accounts for several dozen nickel strikings of this type, which were distributed to contemporary collectors as part of pattern Proof sets along with examples of Judd-618 to 620 and Judd-633 to 634.
