Description
Completing the trio in aluminum, J-1137 renders J-1135's modified Seated Liberty concept in the lightweight experimental metal. This pattern continues the relentless pace of dollar design exploration that characterized 1871, a year that produced more silver dollar pattern varieties than any other in American Mint history. The complete documentation of each design concept across multiple metals ensured that decision-makers had the fullest possible basis for comparison.
