  • #1 I don't see anything different about the design elements of the coin so I am assuming it's a Pattern since it was struck in copper.....am I correct?

    #2 It's a stunning coin and I am jealous as heck that you own it instead of me image

    Copper/Bronze pattern in anticipation of the changeover in 1864, I guess. This from US Patterns.com

    The mint's first experiment with bronze. These were struck in the following formats.

    J299/P359. This is a very popular pattern which is very difficult to find with a majority of red color.

    The color on the central reverse looks like a wild sunset -

    Great looking coin.

    "Amazing"!
  • WOW.........It is truly amazing...

    I know very little about IHC. If you don't mind me asking what is this bad boy worth......


    If it were mine I would say PRICELESS. But I was just wondering.
