1858 Proof Pattern Copper-Nickel Cent. . Dies by James B. Longacre. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, head of a native American left, wearing feather headdress inscribed LIBERTY; 1858 below / ONE/ CENT within wreath of corn, wheat, cotton, and tobacco leaves. Edge: plain. Judd 213; Pollock 252. In NGC encapsulation 5938151-004, graded PF 61.

The most notable change between this coin and the previous is the dramatically different reverse wreath design. This attractive "agricultural" wreath cluttered the reverse a bit and was not adopted for normal coinage.

From the Dr. Jay M. Galst Collection.
