Description
The 1916 Proof Half Dollar Pattern - J-1993 is a proof half dollar pattern struck at the Philadelphia Mint, part of the Design Reform Patterns (1880-1942) series. It is one of Adolph A. Weinman's 1916 half dollar patterns for the Walking Liberty design, renumbered in the 8th edition of Judd in the striking order worked out by Roger Burdette. It is the only 1916 half dollar pattern struck from the regular reverse die; two are confirmed, one circulated. The listing J-1797a was a misdescription of this coin. It is struck in silver with a reeded edge. USPatterns.com lists it as unique. Earlier editions of Judd numbered it J-1797b. It is also catalogued as Pollock-2055 and Taxay EP1334. Cataloged as PCGS #12181.
