Description

Judd-381, Pollock-452, is the first of three 1864 proof dime patterns testing the With Motto design. After the extensive 1863 dime pattern series (J-325 through J-334 with numerous compositional variants), the 1864 program was more focused, with just three varieties representing the final refinement of the motto design for the ten-cent denomination. The obverse retains the Seated Liberty design while the reverse integrates IN GOD WE TRUST into the wreath composition. Struck in silver with proof finish.

Rarity Notes
