Description

Judd-432, Pollock-505, is an off-metal die trial of the regular 1865 Liberty Seated half dollar, struck in copper with a reeded edge using the same production dies used for circulating coinage that year. It is a copper striking of the regular 1865 half dollar dies, which USPatterns thinks was more likely made for sale to collectors; counterfeits are known. It is struck in copper with a reeded edge; USPatterns rates it R-6. Catalogued as Judd-432, Pollock-505, A/W 497.
