Patterns
1873 T$1 Trade Dollar, Judd-1322, Pollock-1465, R.4, PR65 Cameo NGC. The obverse is similar to the adopted design, but with a longer base on the rock that extends to the right (facing) rim behind Liberty. The reverse shows a small eagle high in the field, with spread wings and holding a ribbon that is nearly a closed loop in its beak. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. These pieces were struck in silver (reeded and plain edges), copper, aluminum, and white metal. This silver example shows deeply mirrored fields. The light reddish patina darkens several shades around the devices.
From The Siegel Collection.
