Private restrike. Believed to have been struck in Philadelphia by an unknown person, circa 1860s, to create a “filler” for collectors who had not been able to locate this rare date. Copper strikings (not listed here) are plentiful. Traditionally listed as tin (here as white metal). Two specimens known.

Obverse Description

Die originally used to strike 1803-dated cents, Sheldon-261, crudely altered so that the last digit would represent a 4.

Reverse Description

Die of an incorrect style for 1804, a later type (originally used to strike 1820 copper cents of the variety Newcomb-12).
