Description

The 1915 Proof Half Dollar Pattern - J-1791/1961 is a proof half dollar pattern struck without the S mint mark, part of the Design Reform Patterns (1880-1942) series. USPatterns.com believes the Panama-Pacific pieces without the S were struck on purpose, for profit, rather than as trials. It is the Panama-Pacific half dollar without the S, struck in silver; at least four are known. It is struck in silver with a reeded edge. USPatterns.com rates it R-7. The 8th edition of Judd renumbered it J-1961. It is also catalogued as Pollock-2029. Cataloged as PCGS #12177.
