About This Series

The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Patterns (1857) series of Pattern Coinage in the U.S. Coins contains 13 distinct entries with CPG® values between $5,250.00 and $72,000.00.
The year 1857 was the launching pad for American numismatics as a widespread hobby. The Act of February 21 mandated the discontinuation of the copper half cent and cent, effective two years thence (but later given a six-month extension). Soon, all such pieces, including the familiar large “pennies” of childhood, would be gone from circulation. Nostalgia swept America, and countless citizens looked through loose coins and elsewhere to see how many different dates they could acquire.
