Patterns
1867 5C Five Cents, Judd-564, Pollock-625, High R.7, PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. CAC. A bust of Liberty faces left, and wears a headdress with four feathers and four stars. A ribbon in her hair bears the inscription UNION & LIBERTY. LONGACRE F. resides below the bust; a signature nearly as prominent as that of Gobrecht's below his silver dollar. The reverse has a prominent V within a large shield. Three tiny center dots are noted on each side. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. While plain edge aluminum strikings (Judd-561) are relatively available, reeded edge copper pieces are rare with only a half dozen estimated known. This attractive Gem is dominated by rose and ruby-red colors, although the reverse devices have olive patina. The surfaces are nearly pristine, although a small and curly lintmark (as made) below Liberty's eye will suffice as a pedigree marker.
Ex: FUN Signature (Heritage, 1/2004), lot 2252.
