1874 Pattern Twenty Cents. Judd-1355, Pollock-1499. Rarity-6-. Copper. Plain Edge. Thin Planchet. Proof-64 BN (PCGS). CAC. OGH--First Generation.Obv: Liberty is seated left, her right hand supporting a liberty pole and her left resting atop a globe inscribed LIBERTY. Two bales of cotton and a tobacco plant are at Libertys feet, and a sheaf of wheat is behind the portrait. Thirteen stars encircle the periphery and the date 1874 is below. Rev: Similar to the design that the Mint adopted for regular issue twenty-cent piece production in 1875, but here the second arrow head points well above the first letter T in TWENTY and all three leaves at the end of the branch point toward the eagles left wing tip. Pretty undertones of autumn-orange, salmon pink and powder blue enliven otherwise golden-brown surfaces as the coin rotates under a light. A sharp and inviting near-Gem to represent the thin planchet variant of the J.A. Bailley pattern twenty-cent piece in copper.From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Acquired circa 1988.
