Description
Judd-267, Pollock-315, is the 1860 transitional half dime. It pairs the starred obverse of the 1859 half dime pattern J-232, here dated 1860, with the new reverse of 1860, so neither side names the United States; USPatterns reports that 100 were said to be struck, all as business strikes. It is struck in silver with a reeded edge; USPatterns rates it R-4. Catalogued as Judd-267, Pollock-315. Cataloged as PCGS #4373.
