Why are you tempting me with Large Cent Patterns? I have my eye on a J-161 NGC PF58. No woodgrain but a nice look and fits my budget.

Love the 1855 pattern eagle

Something real special about those patterns 1855-58

Had a PR-64 j-206 I sold a year ago and have missed it ever since

haha. i'm sharing the pain/joy.

had have patterns on the brain hardcore the last year or so and after delving deeper down into them i am simply compelled to share a few of them yet simultaneously using EVERY single ounce of strength not to make 20-30 threads on various topics about them and for them!

Love them.

Nice examples.... Not a type that interests me, but many collectors favor wood grain coins. Cheers, RickO

@LanceNewmanOCC ,Love those pattern cents! Looking to put together a collection of them myself. Do you have more to share? Would really like to see a post on them.

the disclosure is these are not mine. they are in the ANS collection and yes, there are a BUUUUUUNCH more. a lot of the patterns i looked at, they have decent size runs of them. not a lot of woodies though from what i saw.

they have a very nice run of gobrechts. (some other VERY rare ones and possible a couple/few unique ones)

it can be kind of funny/ironic to view a big run of the patterns as you can see how they were mixing and matching trying to find that JUST right balance of all the factors they had to consider.
