1869 Pattern Half Dollar. Silver, reeded edge. NGC graded Proof 63. Nice white example of this pleasing STANDARD SILVER type. Liberty is decked in a stylish liberty cap decorated with two stars; meanwhile, a ribbon inscribed LIBERTY in raised letters extends from the base of the cap across her hair. The designer's initial B within the folds of the ribbon points to William Barber (not his son, Charles) as the origin of this piece. William Barber replaced Longacre as chief engraver upon Longacre's death in January 1869. Pop 3; 7 finer. (PCGS # 60969) .
Estimated Value $2,200 - 2,400.

 
Realized $2,300
