<p>[QUOTE="1865King, post: 8407454, member: 103207"]PCGS can test the alloy. If your cent is what you say it is, it's worth the effort and cost to have it tested. If it's not, then you would know that also. I recently picked up an 1864 J-356a pattern Indian cent. This coin has 5% silver content. From what I know it's one of two known. There is no way to tell the alloy without being tested with modern equipment. My coin was tested and confirmed by PCGS. I'm attaching pictures of my 1864 J-356a. You can't tell what its alloy is without being tested. The J-356a were struck with different alloys. The pattern is listed in Richard Snow's latest 2 book set.[ATTACH=full]1491395[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1491396[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
