Description

The 1871 Proof Three Dollar Pattern - J-1167 is a proof three-dollar pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Trade Dollar Era Patterns (1871-1873) series.

Five or six are known in copper, one of them gilt. It is struck in copper with a reeded edge. USPatterns.com rates it R-7. It is also catalogued as Pollock-1309 and Adams-Woodin 1086.
