- 1870 Pattern Dollar. Judd-1011, Pollock-1144. Rarity-7-. Copper. Plain Edge. Proof-64 RB (PCGS). CAC. Obv:James Barton Longacre's Indian Princess design with Liberty seated left, 13 stars around the border, and the date 1870 below. Liberty is wearing a Native American headdress, her right hand supports a liberty pole and her left hand rests atop a globe inscribed LIBERTY. There are two flags behind Liberty's portrait, one of which is ornamented with 22 stars. Rev:A wreath of cotton and corn surrounds the denomination 1 DOLLAR with the word STANDARD above. Vivid lilac and salmon pink undertones backlight autumn-orange color on the obverse, warmer golden-brown patina on the reverse. Sharply struck with semi-mirrored fields and an overall smooth appearance in hand. The dies for this scarce type were likely executed by William Barber as Longacre, who has received credit for the Indian Princess motif in numismatic literature, died in 1869. Provenance: From the E. Horatio Morgan Collection. Acquired May 1988. Earlier from our (Stack's) sale of the Estate of Corrado Romano, June 1987, lot 873. PCGS Population: 3; with a single Proof-65 RB finer in this category. PCGS# 71259. NGC ID: 29ZW. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
