You know I don't have any patterns to share, but if I did, then I'd show them!
Both are in 1st Gen PCGS Rattler holders.

The only pattern I ever cared to own, and one I wanted even when I was a kid and read about it in CoinAge.
Because I like variety so much, I could be a pattern collector, unfortunately that would limit my collecting to about two pieces a year.

I will never, EVER, get bored looking at this set with its original holder.
That's absolutely spectacular

That's cool, I didn't even know that existed. For the record I was talking about the 1860 half dime pattern. My favorite.

Broadstruck - you're right - never looked at it that way!
simply stunning boiler...
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
Here is a pop 1 (in all grades) $20 aluminum die trial from 1872. J-1254.
Also have a pop 1 $10 aluminum die trial from 1874. J 1380. Both are graded PCGS PR65.
I will not allow these patterns to come out of these holders even for a trueview picture.
By the way, it sold at Heritage in June 2004 for $11,500. I think I was given a fair price for this piece. It now satisfies my long time desire to own a "flowing hair" design. It is now stickered bt CAC.
In fact, I like this more than the $4 Stella. Is that my imagination or wishful thinking?????
Take a look at this pattern (engraved by William Barber) and compare it to the flowinghair $4 Stella of 1879 and 1880 (engraved by Charles Barber)!
They certainly remind me why patterns are me favorite field of numismatic study

Edited To Add: Maybe I'm confusing it with a 39 Seated Half pattern
