Lot 718
1872 Pattern Commercial Dollar. Silver, reeded edge. . Judd-1219. Pollock-1360. PCGS graded Proof 62. This pattern utilizes the regular obverse die of seated dollars then in use. The rather busy reverse includes the "God Our Trust" motto at bottom. The strike is quite sharp with no detail unimpressed. The coloring is what one would expect on a coin of this vintage and is most attractive in combined shades of deep steel blue and russet. Some hairlines well hidden in the toning and commensurate with the assigned grade do not measurably detract from the considerable eye appeal of this very rare coin. The newest edition of the Judd pattern book lists rarity as L 7, indicating that only 7-12 pieces are known. Population 2, with only one better in 66 (PCGS # 61490) .
Estimated Value $7,500 - 8,500.
