Patterns
1880 $1 Goloid Metric Dollar, Judd-1652, Pollock-1852, R.6-7, PR66 Red and Brown NGC. CAC. On the obverse the head of Liberty faces left with E PLURIBUS UNUM above and the date below. The reverse has the statutory requirements for a goloid dollar in the center, surrounded by a circle of 38 stars. Outside the circle of stars is GOLOID METRIC DOLLAR DEO EST GLORIA, which is in turn surrounded by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 100 CENTS. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. Just over a dozen pieces were struck of this Goloid Metric design in copper. The Red and Brown designation is somewhat misleading as there is no actual Brown present; rather each side is just slightly mellowed off of full red. We do not even see carbon spots or flecks on this dollar. Some happy pattern collector is going to be very pleased with this piece, especially if it goes for a Red and Brown price.
