- FROM THE STEVEN COOK COLLECTION, PART 2. R-6+ (13-20 minted). An experimental cent that was produced to test a new a new diameter and thickness of the planchet--not a new design. The obverse was produced by reducing the design elements of an 1854 silver dollar. The reverse has an oak wreath enclosing 1 CENT. A lovely example with decent surfaces and boldly defined details. The weakness of details on the obverse is from the reduction process used to produce the die. Hints of red peak out outlining areas and making them stand out. PCGS 0, NGC 1. This coin sold for $2,185 in November 2003 and more recently a MS62BN sold for $1,880 in October 2012--that is still over half a decade ago. Worthy of any transitional pattern cent collection, this mint made electrotype is very rarely seen! Cert. Number 354839-001 PCGS # 11654
