1879 $1 Goloid Metric Dollar, Judd-1626, Pollock-1822, R.4, PR62 Cameo PCGS. William Barber's design for the Goloid Metric dollar with a capped head of Liberty on the obverse, paired with a reverse that carries verbose statutory as well as elemental inscriptions. A circle of stars about the central inscriptions breaks the otherwise continuous wording. Struck in goloid with a reeded edge. This sharply struck specimen displays significant contrast between the frosty portrait and the glassy obverse field. The borders display peach-gold toning, and the fields exhibit delicate hairlines.
