1868 Pattern Three Cents. Judd-616, Pollock-682. Rarity-6+. Copper. Plain Edge. Proof-65 RB (NGC). Coin alignment. Obv: Similar to that used to strike regular issue 1868 nickel three-cent pieces, although set in a wide border. The date is expressed in small numerals. Rev: The Roman numeral III is surrounded by a wreath of corn, cotton, wheat and tobacco that is very similar to that used for the Flying Eagle cent. Handsome tobacco brown surfaces also reveal rose and lilac blue undertones, as well as blushes of blue-gray peripheral toning, when the coin dips into direct lighting. Examples of this type were distributed as part of pattern Proof sets along with one cent and nickel five-cent pieces featuring a similar obverse design. Copper impressions, as here, are rare with the uspatterns.com website accounting for only about a dozen known. NGC Census: 1; 0 graded higher in this category. The corresponding PCGS Population is identical at 1/0. There are no grading events in the RD category at either service. PCGS# 70829. NGC ID: 29N8. Click here for certification details from NGC.
