Description

The 1876 Proof Quarter Pattern - J-1455 is a proof quarter pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Metric & Stella Patterns (1874-1879) series. It was struck from the regular 1876 Seated Liberty quarter dies.

It is struck in copper with a reeded edge. USPatterns.com rates it R-8. It is also catalogued as Pollock-1604. Cataloged as PCGS #61775.
