Description
1863 Seated Half Dime in Copper
Judd-323, PR64 Red
1863 H10C Half Dime, Judd-323, Pollock-388, R.7, PR64 Red
PCGS. Ex: Simpson. Both obverse and reverse dies are the
designs used on regular-issue coinage for the year. Struck in
copper with a reeded edge. Traditionally listed as a dies trial
striking, Judd-323 is now believed to be a restrike issue. The
USPatterns.com website elaborates: "... these are actually
restrikes deliberately made in the early 1870s and sold as part of
complete off-metal sets with the silver coinage of this year
containing quarter, half dollar, and dollar [pieces] which had the
reverses of 1866 with the motto 'IN GOD WE TRUST' above the eagle."
The hub used to produce the dies had a broken D in UNITED, as
observed on the current offering. To a lesser degree, aluminum
pieces -- Judd-324 -- were produced from the same die marriage.
Perhaps a dozen examples of Judd-323 are believed extant in all
grades. The surfaces display bright, original mint red luster on
each side. The only grade-limiting factor is a number of small
specks of carbon scattered across each side.Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
