- 1873 Pattern Trade Dollar. Judd-1276, Pollock-1418. Rarity-5. Silver. Reeded Edge. Proof-62 (PCGS).
Obv:A bust of Liberty faces left with 13 stars around the border and the date 1873 below. Liberty wears a coronet inscribed LIBERTY, and her hair is tied in a knot by a band of pearls. Rev:The inscription TRADE / DOLLAR / 420 GRAINS / 900 FINE is surrounded by an olive wreath, at the base of which is a scroll with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is inscribed along the upper border. A vividly toned specimen with iridescent antique gold, cobalt blue, salmon pink and champagne-apricot undertones to dominant olive and silver gray patina. Both dies for this type are credited to William Barber. This portrait of Liberty is one of many different depictions from his long career at the Mint, some of which are well known to collectors such as the "Sailor Head" and even more famous "Amazonian." This Liberty Head has not gained such a nickname, and as such is perhaps not as famous, although it is no less elegant.
Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Earlier from our (Bowers and Merena's) Ebenezer Milton Saunders Collection sale, November 1987, lot 471.
PCGS# 61561. NGC ID: 2A88.
