Description

Gold eagle pattern continuing the design explorations for international trade coinage in 1874. Chief Engraver William Barber prepared multiple eagle-denomination designs as part of the broader metric coinage initiative proposed by Mint Director Linderman. This variety represents a distinct die pairing from J-1374.

Rarity Notes

R-7 (Extremely Rare). Gold denomination patterns from 1874 survive in very limited numbers.
