Patterns
1873 T$1 Trade Dollar, Judd-1278, Pollock-1420, R.7, PR66 Red PCGS. The obverse features a distinctive bust of Liberty in profile view to the left, wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY. The reverse is almost identical to the Commercial Dollar reverse above, but is inscribed TRADE DOLLAR instead of COMMERCIAL DOLLAR. This is struck in copper with a reeded edge. Struck in silver (plain and reeded edges), copper, aluminum, and white metal. About 10 copper pieces are estimated known today, and this is the only one that has survived with intact mint red luster. The surfaces are just as impressive as one would expect. The color is undimmed by the passage of the years and the red color shows almost no variation in hue. The fields are deeply mirrored and only a few minor specks of carbon can be found.
