Header: Gem Proof 1884 Holey Cent Pattern
Ex Simpson Collection

Description: Dies as illustrated. This reflective “holey” cent pattern offers steel-gray mirrors and lightly dusted motifs, all with a whisper of golden iridescence. An excellent example of Eastman Johnson’s perforated design type; the holes vary in size and were possibly done by hand. It is thought that about two dozen or so examples of Judd-1721 are extant, with the present coin well up in the rankings at NGC. A pedigreed piece in exemplary condition.
