Description
The copper version of J-1114's distinct Liberty treatment, this half dollar pattern translates the design into the warmest available composition. Each copper half dollar pattern in the Trade Dollar era represents a substantial piece both physically and artistically, with the generous diameter allowing for design details that would be impossible on smaller denominations. The copper composition gives these large patterns an almost medallic quality.
Rarity Notes
R-6 to R-7. Approximately 10-15 examples estimated.
