1872 T$1 Commercial Dollar, Judd-1219, Pollock-1360, Low R.7, PR64 NGC. Ex: Share. The obverse is the regular design for the Seated Liberty dollar. The reverse has a laurel wreath with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA around. The wreath stems are tied by a bow and intertwined with a ribbon inscribed GOD OUR TRUST. Inside, COMMERCIAL and DOLLAR are separated by a cornucopia with 420 GRS 900 FINE on two lines below. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. Over a dozen silver examples are known of this pattern, but curiously only one piece is extant in copper. OF the known silver examples three are in museums, bringing the number available to collectors down to around nine. This is a bright example with rich toning on each side. The centers are gray-rose while surrounded by a wide margin of deep blue.
