Description

Judd-332, Pollock-384, is a proof dime pattern in the later portion of the 1863 series. This variety features a die combination that was apparently tested in only a single composition, suggesting it represented a less seriously considered design concept compared to those patterns (like J-331) that received multi-metal testing. The standard composition for single-metal dime patterns was typically silver, maintaining the connection to the traditional dime material. Struck with full proof surfaces.

Rarity Notes

Rarity-7. Approximately 5-10 specimens known.
