Inexpensive pattern cent which uses the obverse design
from the three cent nickel combined with the reverse which was used on
the flying eagle cent and three dollar gold piece. Both of these design
elements were used extensively on patterns created for a variety of
denominations in the 1860's. This coin is essentially untoned. The
obverse has a bit of cameo contrast and decent mirror reflectivity. The
reverse has slight haze, which keeps the grade down at the 62 level.
