Description: (1961) CSA Copper 1c ~ Bashlow Restrike ~ Defaced Dies NGC MS67 RDPlease View Photos (1961) 1861 Confederate Cent, Bashlow Restrike, Copper, MS67 RD NGC. Designated by NGC as "defaced dies," but this requires explanation. Robert Bashlow and David Laties purchased the original (and defaced) 1861 Confederate cent dies from John J. Ford, Jr. Hubs were made from the cent, and dies were then made from the hubs. Thus, the 1961 Bashlow restrike Confederate cents were struck from transfer dies derived from the original defaced dies. Bashlow struck 20,000 pieces in bronze and another 5,000 pieces in goldine, but the gold mintage was just three pieces. Reportedly, an example was donated to the Smithsonian, which would leave just two pieces available for collectors.
