Have you heard of him?


Might be a sort of popular name in the Numismatic world. Maybe.
If you have a Red Book turn to the inside cover and right under the title and R.S.Yeoman, someone stuck the name of Q.David Bowers.
HHMMMM. Similar name?

All of the aluminum, copper, and nickel listings are for patterns.

That was my first thought, but there is no mention of them in the Red Book (not that I expected it, but many patterns are discussed throughout).

I am hoping someone will chime in with the details.

1868 1C One Cent, Judd-612, Pollock-677, Low R.7

Struck from the regular proof dies for the 1868 Indian cent, in aluminum with a plain edge. Judd notes that two pairs of proof dies were used.

One might infer from the use of two pairs of proof dies that a considerable number were struck, but they are nonetheless today rated Low R.7. In addition, aluminum was still quite a precious metal at the time(s) these pieces were produced--regardless of exactly when that was. Improved processes for isolating elemental aluminum from its alloys resulted in increased availability of the metal only in the late 1880s. Per Judd: "One of the reverse dies also used to make restrikes of regular Proof 1864 With L cents (per Richard E. Snow); this die is not known to have been used to strike regular issue 1868 Proof cents, but was widely used from 1869 to 1871 (per Snow). This, plus the use of two die pairs, would seem to indicate that aluminum cents were struck on at least two different occasions."

At least some of these were included in complete 16-piece proof sets from the cent through double eagle. The Garrett Collection had a complete set; the earliest recorded offering of a complete aluminum proof set is in the William Fewsmith sale of 1870, lot 1381, conducted by Mason and Company.

You might get a couple grand for it . Stack's auction might be your best bet. First printing of the RedBook, 1947 gets over a grand in VF condition. I googled Stack's 1935 catalogue and there is some guy looking to buy early Stack's catalogues. I have a Stacks book from 1959....somewhere. Had it since I was 5 years old.
