The regular dies trial piece. These appear to have been struck from business strike dies which is not unusual for pre-1863 coinage. Examples were struck as follows: Copper J187/P223 with only 2 or 3 believed to exist including one the illustrated example which was given to the Smithsonian. Obviously, this example was in circulation for awhile. Photo courtesy of the National Numismatic Collection of the Smithsonian institution. Nickel or German Silver J187A/P224 with only 2 or 3 believed to exist including the piece illustrated below ex Stack's 6/77, Ivy 8/80, Stack's 1/87, Heritage 1/2007, Heritage 8/2009.
