Description
1838 Gobrecht-Designed Half Dollar
Judd-79A, PR63
Ex: Eliasberg
1838 P50C Seated Liberty Half Dollar, Judd-79A, Pollock-86, Low
R.7 PR63 NGC. Ex: Eliasberg. The obverse is similar to the
adopted design of 1839. The reverse is an early impression from
Gobrecht's flying eagle design, which makes this coin a reduced
version of the Gobrecht dollar. Struck in silver with a reeded
edge. This is the so-called "Straight Date" variant of Judd-79, of
which only a dozen or so pieces are known. The surfaces are bright
and mostly pearl-gray with wisps of golden-brown and blue toning
around the margins. A rare and infrequently offered pattern.Ex: Chapman Brothers April 1897 Sale; J.M. Clapp; Clapp Estate, 1942, to Louis E.
