- 1871 Pattern Half Dollar. Judd-1115, Pollock-1251. Rarity-7-. Copper. Reeded Edge. Proof-64 RD (PCGS). CAC. Obv:Chief Engraver James Barton Longacre's Indian Princess motif with 13 stars around the border. Liberty is seated left wearing a Native American headdress, her left hand resting atop a globe inscribed LIBERTY and her right hand supporting a liberty pole. Two flags are behind the portrait, one of which is ornamented with 13 stars, and the date 1871 is below. Rev:The same design that the Mint used to strike regular issue 1871 Liberty Seated half dollars. Splendid rose-orange surfaces retain full mint color. Appreciably reflective in the fields, the devices are fully struck with a softly frosted finish.
