About This Series

The Patterns (1823) series of Pattern Coinage in the U.S. Coins contains 1 distinct entries.

History and Overview

Although no record exists of patterns being struck in 1823, there are impressions in silver of the so-called 1823 cent private restrike from mismatched dies.

Collecting Perspective

The cent restrikes from this year were made outside of the Mint circa 1860, by mismatching two dies. Dr. Judd noted that 12 pieces were restruck by dealer John W. Haseltine in 1878 and 1879. This may be the case, but information provided by Haseltine is notoriously unreliable. Probably more than 1,000 copper restrikes were made over a period of time. These are highly collectible and readily located today (copper impressions are not listed here). Several die states exist. The dies exist today.

Demand for this variety, especially the silver impressions, comes not only from pattern enthusiasts, but also from cent specialists.
