Description

The copper companion to J-1209's refined trade dollar concept, this pattern demonstrates the evolving design in warm base metal. Copper's ability to capture fine die detail makes it particularly valuable for evaluating the incremental changes between successive dollar design iterations, where differences might be subtle but cumulatively significant.

Rarity Notes

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