- 1862 Pattern Liberty Seated Half Dollar. Judd-293, Pollock-351. Rarity-5. Silver. Reeded Edge. Proof-64 (PCGS). Obv:The same design that the Mint used to produce regular issue 1862 Liberty Seated half dollars. Rev:Similar to the regular issue design, but with the addition of a scroll with the motto GOD OUR TRUST in the field above the eagle. This richly original specimen exhibits iridescent undertones of cobalt blue, antique gold and salmon pink to otherwise dominant steely-charcoal patina. Fully struck with appreciable reflectivity to the finish evident as the surfaces dip into a light. According to the cataloging in W. Elliott Woodward's May 1863 sale, the Mint produced 25 examples of this type for distribution as part of pattern Proof sets, most of which survive (per the website uspatterns.com). Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. PCGS Population: 9; with a single Proof-65 finer in this category. PCGS# 60443. NGC ID: 26VF. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
