The regular dies trial piece. These appear to be true trial pieces as opposed to being deliberately struck for sale to collectors.
Examples are known as follows:
Copper J290/P348 with at least 5 known from business strike dies differing in date placement as noted:
High Date
1) B/M 1/91 as PCGS63BN, unknown intermediaries, Simpson-Heritage 9/20 - PCGS64BN, illustrated above, click on the thumbnail image to enlarge
2) Stacks 1/05 - NGC64BN
3) Stacks 10/97 - Unc 60, lacquered
Low Date
1) Goldberg 5/03, Stacks 10/03, Heritage 12/03 Bullet, ANR 6/04, Heritage 2/05, Heritage 4/05, Heritage 5/05, Heritage 2/25 - PCGSAU58BN, illustrated below

Die unknown - Paramount 8/74 ANA - VF20
Oroide J292/P350 with supposedly 2 or 3 known. We cannot confirm any.
The listing in Judd and Pollock for a reeded edge copper-nickel piece J291/P349 is believed to be a misdescription of J300/P360-P362.
