Description

Exploring yet another approach to the trade dollar obverse, J-1135 features a Seated Liberty figure in a new pose or with modified attributes that set it apart from earlier concepts in the series. Struck in the standard silver alloy, this pattern adds another variation to the rapidly growing catalog of dollar design options being assembled for congressional and Treasury Department review. The sheer number of dollar pattern variants in 1871 reflects the unprecedented importance of this design competition.

Rarity Notes
