The 1792 Disme in silver with vertical reeded edge. This is one of the most famous of all pattern designs. Only 3 examples are known as follows. These pedigrees have been updated based on information in Stacks October 2000 sale. 1) Brand, Judd, Kosoff and Kaplan FPLs, Partrick. 2) Mickley, Cohen, Ulex (Lyman Low 1902 sale lot 431)?, Jewett, Norweb. This is a thick planchet specimen with the date removed. Stacks lists this as being ex-Brand in their October 2000 sale, but, if Brand did own it, it was after the Jewett sale. Brand only bought the gem copper example in that sale and entered it in his journal as #49190. 3) Seavey (1873 Descriptive Catalog #839), Parmelee, Steigerwalt (subsequently offered in his fixed price lists), Granberg-1914 ANS exhibit, Newcomer, Col Green, F. Starr, Stacks 10/00, southern collection, Simpson collection example and is illustrated above. It is surprising that Breen didn't know that Starr owned this. Note: It is possible that the Granberg and Brand pedigrees are reversed but based on current information, this is the most likely scenario. Special thanks go to Michael Hodder for his help in confirming these pedigrees. About 15 are known in copper with reeded edge of J10/P11. including examples in the Smithsonian, Durham Western Heritage Museum, Independence Hall and Newman collections. Most of these have normal vertical edge reeding. There are also 3 examples of J11/P12 known in copper with a plain edge as follows: 1) Mint collection, Maris, Garrett, Bowers and Ruddy's Garrett IV sale 2) Stacks 4/44 lot 569 ?, Lohr, Roper as AU, Stacks 10/05 - NGC61BN. 3) Authenticated at the 2004 ANA, Goldberg 2/05 gem but defaced.
