Patterns
1869 P3C Three Cent Nickel, Judd-676, Pollock-753, R.4, PR64 Cameo PCGS. Similar to the adopted dies, except the Roman numeral on the reverse lacks ribbing. Two variants are known of this pattern, this is the more available one with normal dentils on the reverse and the wreath slightly low of center (easiest seen by looking at the top of the wreath). Struck in nickel with a plain edge. Only these two nickel variants are available of this pattern. A copper piece hasn't been seen since 1957. The surfaces are muted pearl-gray but still show bright mirroring in the fields.
