Rare Copper Pattern 1875 Shield Nickel
Struck from regular issue dies of the 1875 Shield nickel. Beautiful reddish-orange surfaces are semi reflective in the fields with satiny, razor sharp devices. A greatly prized rarity among pattern specialists, this variety is seldom offered for public sale. The uspatterns.com website notes: "Although called regular dies trial; pieces, these were more likely deliberately struck for sale to collectors as part of complete off-metal sets. The presently offered example of this rarity is the finest certified by PCGS within any color designation, something worth considering when planning your bidding activity.
PCGS#: 816
