The following listing is preliminary based on my perusal of the Brand journals on December 17, 1999. Items marked as unconfirmed in the Pedigree Information column are items attributed to Brand which I either missed or are misattributed. The Brand collection also contained an 1861 Philadelphia Paquet reverse double eagle purchased from the Chapman brothers 1897 M.A. Brown sale. In addition to the gold patterns listed below, the Brand collection contained an extensive number of these patterns in off-metals. These are highlighted by an 1872 copper Amazonian set, at least one 1874 Bickford eagle in aluminum and several in copper, at least 2 1877 Half Unions, at least one quintuple stella in copper, and at least 3 copper and 2 aluminum Stella sets.
