1878 $1 J-1562, RB PR (PCGS#71924)

The August 2010 Boston Rarities Sale

详细说明: 1878 Pattern Goloid Dollar. Judd-1562, Pollock-1753. Rarity-6+. Proof-66 RB (PCGS). The obverse and reverse designs are the same used to strike the Judd-1560 pattern Goloid Dollar that we are also offering in this sale. Struck in copper with a reeded edge.<br />     More readily obtainable than the goloid strikings of this type, the Judd-1562 copper impressions are still rare in an absolute sense with not many more than 12 specimens believed extant. This impressive Gem stands as the highest-graded example known to PCGS, and it is on the threshold of Superb quality. Both sides are sharp-to-full in strike with gorgeous color in a blend of reddish-orange and olive-copper hues. The obverse is perhaps a bit more vivid in appearance than the reverse, but both sides are equally well preserved with nary a detracting blemish to report.
