1879 Pattern Dollar. Copper, reeded edge. Judd-1614. Pollock-1810. Low Rarity 7. PCGS graded Proof 66 Red & Brown. CAC. PQ.The obverse is the regular dies of the Morgan silver dollar of 1879. The reverse is entirely different with a large standing eagle with wings outstretched, clutching a trio of arrows in his left claw, and a long branch with his right claw of laurel or olive leaves. Below is the denomination spelled out ONE DOLLAR and above at the top is UNITED STATES OF AMERICA / just below that is IN GOD WE TRUST in small letters. These legends are required on coinage, and get a trifle busy when a large central device such as this eagle is employed in the design as the legends have to appear around said device. This particular pattern is quite rare and enormously popular for its designs, and was created after the initial appearance of the Morgan silver dollar met with some criticism. Today there are lovely shades of brown, blue and green colors on both sides, outstanding surface quality and bold visual appeal. Pop 1; 1 finer in 67 for PRRB.(PCGS # 71992) Estimated Value $12,000 - UP
Ex Harry W. Bass Jr. Collection.
