1851 P1C One Cent, Judd-127 Original, Pollock-149, Low R.6 MS64 PCGS. The obverse features CENT at the top and ONE TENTH SILVER at the bottom, while the reverse depicts a laurel wreath and the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (the coin is reversed in the holder). Part of an effort to reduce the diameter of the cumbersome large cent. The center is perforated, unlike restrikes. Struck in billon (10% silver, 90% copper) with a plain edge. The surfaces are hazy gray and there is a planchet lamination across much of the obverse. Sharply defined.
