Description

Closing the fifteen-entry 1871 quarter pattern series, J-1104 was struck in aluminum and carries the hybrid design concept into its most experimental material form. As the final quarter pattern of the year, this piece represents the culmination of a systematic design survey that explored five distinct obverse concepts across three compositions. The complete 1871 quarter pattern series documents one of the most thorough single-year design evaluations for any American denomination.

Rarity Notes
