Description

An 1785 Immune Columbia silver pattern with a reeded edge, one of the most important coins in American numismatics. The silver composition and reeded edge suggest this was a more formal proposal for a national coinage than the plain edge copper versions. Immune Columbia silver patterns are exceptionally rare, with only a small number of specimens known across all varieties.

Rarity Notes

Of the highest rarity. Silver Immune Columbia patterns are among the most important American colonial coins.
