Owner Comments:

1887 1 Centime Copper-Nickel Pattern ESSAI; DUPRIEZ-53 Copper-Nickel Pattern.
Congo Free State/Belgian Congo 1887 1 Centime Copper-Nickel Pattern/ESSAI
Very to extremely rare.
Now NGC MS65 after conservation, previously PCGS SP64. Upgraded a point as I predicted.

The circulation pieces were struck in copper.
This is a nice companion piece to the 1887 2 centimes that I have in copper-nickel, and cousins to the 1888 1 and 2 centimes I have in copper-nickel as well.
