Description
U.S.A., pattern Morgan/Barber dollar in silver 1879, reeded edge, (Judd 1615, Rarity 7, KM pn.1699 [$12,850 US]). As struck, with light peripheral tone, FDC and excessively rare.
This example as a proof pattern mule uses the accepted Morgan head design for Morgan dollars and a new reverse by William Barber. Rudd notes this pattern has not been seen elsewhere. The reverse is similar to Judd 1605 but the eagle is larger and the wreath of Judd 1605 has been omitted.
