- 1859 Pattern Half Dollar. Judd-239, Pollock-295. Rarity-4. Silver. Reeded Edge. Proof-58 (PCGS). Obv:The design features a right facing bust of Liberty with the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around the border and the date 1859 below. Liberty is wearing a wreath of oak and vine leaves on her head, and a scroll inscribed LIBERTY crosses her shoulder. Rev: A wreath of cotton, tobacco, sugar cane, corn, wheat and oak leaves encircles the denomination 1/2 DOLLAR. Primarily satiny surfaces are fully struck and fairly smooth, as befits the grade. Otherwise brilliant, light gold iridescence appears under a strong light source at direct angles. The reverse design of this popular pattern half dollar type is attributed to Assistant Engraver Anthony C. Paquet. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
