Description

The 1907 Proof Double Eagle Pattern - J-1778b/1908, Plain Edge is a proof double eagle pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Design Reform Patterns (1880-1942) series. It is the plain-edge Ultra High Relief, the single coin from the Captain North set. Roger Burdette's research found it never received the final striking in the lettered collar, probably because the reverse die broke, so USPatterns.com treats it as a mint error. It is struck in gold with a plain edge. USPatterns.com lists it as unique. The 8th edition of Judd renumbered it J-1908. It is also catalogued as Pollock-2000 and Adams-Woodin 1741. Cataloged as PCGS #62242.
