Lot Description

FROM THE GLORIOUS PATTERNS COLLECTION PART II A real borderline GEM and the obverse is a full CAMEO! The J-356 is struck from regular dies without the L on the ribbon, struck on a pure copper blank with a plain edge. Listed as Low Rarity-6. Fabulous salmon-orange color with soft violet and rose overtones. The mirrors are highly reflective and the obverse devices stand out in stark cameo contrast. The toning is deeper on the reverse. A very rare and desirable pattern Indian cent. PCGS 3, NGC 1. This is much more attractive than the Simpson coin that brought $1,920 in September 2020. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $2,400. A very affordable coin that will fit nicely in an advanced Indian cent or cabinet of Pattern coinage. Good luck. Cert. Number 36446377 PCGS # 70525
