Strike Type
Coin Details
Description
Struck in white metal, this reverse die trial is for George T. Morgan's 1879 dollar pattern Judd-1615, one of his attempts to replace the eagle of the regular dollar. Its design side is fully proof, while the blank side has denticles and a business-strike look, and it was struck in a reeded edge collar; uspatterns calls it a one-sided proof that should be renumbered Judd-1616A. It is ex Farouk.
