1873 Proof Dollar Pattern - J-1305

Coin Details

Description

A copper rendering of the near-adopted design concept from J-1304, this pattern provides the most detailed base-metal view of a design approaching the final Trade Dollar form. The copper composition's superior detail reproduction makes these late-series pieces invaluable for identifying the specific design elements that were selected or rejected during the final stages of the competition.

Rarity Notes

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