Description
1878 Pattern Morgan Dollar, PR63 Cameo
Judd-1550A, Raised Designer's Initial
1878 $1 Morgan Dollar, Judd-1550A, Pollock-1725, Low R.6, PR63
Cameo NGC. Both sides are similar to the adopted design, but
differ in several minor areas. The most obvious are the fan-shaped
leaves on the lower reverse. On the obverse the wheat ear points to
the left of the R in PLURIBUS, the point of the truncation of
Liberty's neck is nearer star 1, and the M for Morgan's initial is
raised rather than incuse. Struck in silver with a reeded edge.
Probably only a half dozen of these pieces are known. There were
four obverse and either two or three reverse dies that produced
four varieties, all struck between December 1, 1877 and January 2,
1878. This is a brilliant example that displays deeply reflective
fields with starkly contrasting frosted devices. The surfaces are
lightly hairlined but present very well with no noticeable contact
marks.Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 61911, Greysheet# 14791)
