Description

A copper rendering of the trade dollar synthesis design from J-1224, this pattern provides the warm-toned base-metal comparison for one of the final comprehensive design concepts of 1872. Copper strikings of these late-series dollar patterns are particularly valued because they document the near-final state of the Trade Dollar's artistic development with exceptional clarity, capturing every nuance of the design's mature form.

Rarity Notes

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