Coin / United States of America / P1c / Patterns / 1795 / Philadelphia

Copper cent from the regular dies used to coin Sheldon-79 (Breen-1677, dies 6-G), flowing hair style, but with reeded edge. These seem to have been struck on 168-grain planchets. The edge has vertical raised ridges or reeds. About a half dozen pieces are known, the demand for which is exceedingly strong as these are listed among regular-issue copper cents.
