1871,
1871 Pattern Five Cents. Judd-1055, Pollock-1190. Rarity-7-. Aluminum. Plain Edge. Proof-65+ Cameo (PCGS). CAC.
Obv: a bust of Liberty faces left with the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA above and the date 1871 below, the date is high with the first 1 nearly touching the base of Liberty's bust, and the portrait is similar to that used on regular issue nickel three-cent pieces. Rev: a laurel wreath surrounds the denomination 5 CENTS. This brilliant, pristine-looking specimen exhibits strong field to device contrast on both sides. This is a truly rare issue with about 10 known, this is the finest seen by PCGS, and the only one to exhibit the Cameo contrast, there are no Deep Cameo examples certified by that service of this Pattern. This design explored the possibility to mimic the smaller Three-cent Nickel coin with a close match to that obverse design, the reverse offered a much larger than usually seen (as no legends were included surrounding the wreath) open wreath design with the denomination within the center so it would be easy to differentiate between the 5 cent coin and the 3 cent coin if this design had been adopted. An important issue that relates to the Shield nickel through its era of production, although the design remained unchanged until 1883.
