HONDURAS, struck at the Paris Mint, copper-nickel proof pattern essai 1 real, 1869, E below date, very rare, NGC PF 62, ex-Whittier. Stickney-unl; KM-Pn9. Bold strike, with light golden toning over luster, from a series of essais for a new copper-nickel coinage that ended in failure, replaced by dismal bronze issues, the original patterns like this being quite rare with only a few known. Pedigreed to the Whittier Collection (stated on label).
