1871 Proof Dollar Pattern - J-1136

Coin Details

Description

The copper version of J-1135's modified Seated Liberty dollar design, this pattern demonstrates the new approach in the warm tones of base metal. Copper's ability to capture fine detail makes it particularly valuable for evaluating the modified Liberty figure's attributes, as subtle changes to the figure's pose, drapery, or accessories become more apparent in this composition than in the higher-reflectivity silver versions.

Rarity Notes

R-6 to R-7. Approximately 10-15 examples estimated.
