Incredible Gem Proof 1839 Judd-105 Restrike Gobrecht Silver Dollar 1839 Gobrecht Silver Dollar. Name Removed. Judd-105 Restrike, Pollock-117. Rarity-7-. Dannreuther Reverse Die State d. Silver. Plain Edge. Die Alignment III. Proof-65 (NGC). This is one of the extremely rare issues from the ever popular Gobrecht silver dollar series. The obverse is boldly struck with well frosted devices which stand tall against the reflective fields. The quality on the reverse matches as the fields are as reflective as mirrors, while the devices are all frosty. Both sides are toned to some degree, the obverse with a dusky gold hue while the reverse shows a rich deep blue primarily on the left side, with dusky gold surrounding. There are between 10 and 12 known of this important issue, and Gems such as this are always sought after. Numismatic Reflections by Q. David Bowers As a specialist in pattern coins as well as American numismatics in general, I have to appreciate the work of John Dannreuther, one of the most talented and accomplished numismatic scholars of all time, one whose findings can be "taken to the bank," so to speak. I have known John for many years and have consulted with him regularly. He should be enshrined in one or another of the various halls of fame in our hobby. PCGS# 11448. NGC Census: 5; 1 finer (Proof-66 finest).
