Indian Cents on Quarter Eagle Planchets

The famous 1900 Indian cent struck on a quarter eagle planchet. This was listed by Pollock as P1990 because there of the possibility that they were deliberately struck for collectors. The only problem with this is that 1900 is not the only date known. A 1906 was offered in Stacks June 2004 sale and Taxay lists 1907 and 3 other years for Lincoln cents in his 1976 Comprehensive Catalog.

There are at least 4 known for 1900 including the illustrated example from the 1993 ANA. The earliest known piece was in the Dewitt Smith collection as described in the Brand journal under item #46973.
