- FROM THE STEVEN COOK COLLECTION OF PATTERNS, PART 1. R-7- (7-12 minted). Martha Washington / Mount Vernon design in use since 1965 to test new compositions. Struck in a maganese-brass plated over copper clad planchet with a plain edge. In an effort to not create rarities when testing different compositions, the mint began utilizing different dies that bore no resemblance to current coinage. In 1965, these "Martha Washington" dies were developed to test compositions to replace silver. The design was utilized a few times since, including in 1999 when the mint was testing different alloys for the Sacagwea dollar. Struck on the adopted planchet stock, the present coin is a neat modern pattern that is rarely offered. PCGS 1, NGC 1. The only MS62 to sell was an NGC coin in November 2016 that realized $1,410. PCGS does not list a value, and that service has only graded four coins finer. Cert. Number 32658483 PCGS # 511836
