Description
1871 Twenty Dollar in Aluminum
Judd-1177, PR67 Cameo
1871 $20 Twenty Dollar, Judd-1177, Pollock-1319, High R.7, PR67
Cameo PCGS. Struck from the regular proof dies for the twenty
dollar gold piece. Struck in aluminum with a reeded edge. These
pieces were actually struck for sale to contemporary collectors as
part of complete off-metal sets. Only two or three pieces are
believed known in aluminum. The "common" variety are the half-dozen
pieces known in copper. There is also a curiosity struck in nickel
that has not been seen since 1977. We have never handled an
aluminum piece, and the only record we have is from an ANR sale in
2006 (not this coin). As one would expect from an aluminum strike,
the fields are deeply mirrored and establish a "black" background
for the frosted devices. Exceptional quality and rarity.Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
