1865 $3 J-441, BN PR (PCGS#60626)

August 2011 Chicago ANA - Rarities Night

详细说明: 1865 Pattern Three Dollars. Judd-441, Pollock-516. Rarity-7-. Proof-64 BN (PCGS). Copper. Reeded edge. Regular obverse die, though identified as one first used in 1872. The reverse die is the standard design, but with the date logotype slanting a little up to the right. Deep chocolate brown, complemented by a delightful array of hues accenting both sides. Blue, green, rose and violet are all seen in the mottling. Underlying reflectivity in the fields. This specimen is the plate coin in the 10th Edition of the Judd reference for both Judd-441 and Judd-442, but the attribution as J-441 is correct, as confirmed by the superior images in the Pollock reference. Four have been graded at this level at PCGS, with none finer. A rare piece in lovely grade.
