The March 2012 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1863 Pattern Liberty Seated Half Dime. Judd-323, Pollock-388. Rarity-7+. Copper. Reeded Edge. Proof-64 RB (PCGS). Struck from the regular dies of the 1863 Liberty Seated half dime. Fiery red-orange with deep rose iridescence in abundance. Sharply struck. The <em>uspatterns.com </em>website relates the following: "Although described in the literature as 'regular dies trial pieces,' these are actually restrikes deliberately made in the early 1870s and sold as part of complete off-metal sets with the silver coinage of this year containing <a href="http://uspatterns.com/uspatterns/j335p407.html">quarter</a>, <a href="http://uspatterns.com/uspatterns/j342p414.html">half dollar</a>, and <a href="http://uspatterns.com/uspatterns/j345p417.html">dollar</a> which had the reverses of 1866 with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST above the eagle. These half dime dies were made from a hub which had the D in UNITED broken, and are believed to be backdated novodels."<br /> <br />
