History and Overview

The listed variety of this year is a private restrike from mismatched dies. This year continues the long stretch after 1799 for which no contemporary pattern or trial pieces are known to exist.

J-41, a private restrike from mismatched dies, combines an 1810 cent obverse (Sheldon-285) with a reverse used in 1820 to strike cents of the Newcomb-12 variety. This identical reverse was used to make the so-called “restrike” 1804 cents in copper and tin (here listed as white metal).

Collecting Perspective

Examples of the 1810 cent in white metal are very rare. Demand for them comes not from only pattern specialists, but also from cent enthusiasts.
