The regular dies trial piece. The copper examples were more likely deliberately struck for sale to collectors as part of complete sets. Four copper sets have been accounted for. T. Harrison Garrett had one, a mostly complete double set was apparently stolen from the Iowa State Historical Museum and a 4th set missing the half dollar was offered in Europe in 2022.

We can account for only 5 examples as noted below. To view all available images, click here.
