Patterns
1851 P1C Unperforated Cent, Judd-128b, Pollock-152, R.8, PR64 PCGS. Ex: Simpson. The obverse displays the denomination CENT above and the composition ONE TENTH SILVER below a non-perforated center. On the reverse, the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA surrounds a laurel wreath. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. At one time (but no longer) this piece was accompanied by an old NGC insert that stated it weighs 2.6 grams, and is composed of 95% silver and 4% copper. These 'ring cents' were made with and without a central perforation. This example has no perforation. As such, it is very rare. USPatterns.com only confirms three pieces. The fields are moderately bright and show die polishing lines perpendicular to each other. Each side has golden-gray patina with silver-brilliantish high points.
Ex: ANA Signature (Heritage, 8/2010), lot 5641.
