Description

The 1976 Proof Dollar Pattern - J-2164 is a Bicentennial Eisenhower dollar with the Type II reverse, a proof on 40% silver clad stock that lacks the S mintmark. On the Type II reverse the first U in UNUM falls between the L and U of PLURIBUS. The single known piece turned up in mid-1977 in a cash register of Woodward & Lothrop, a Washington, D.C. department store, a story USPatterns.com takes from Coin World's Comprehensive Catalog & Encyclopedia; it is reported at 383.25 grains, against 350 for the copper-nickel clad dollar. NGC lists it as 1976 J-2164 $1 PF.
