Description
1865 Five Dollar in Copper
Judd-446, PR64 Brown
1865 $5 Five Dollar, Judd-446, Pollock-518, High R.6, PR64 Brown
PCGS. The obverse die is the regular design for the year. The
reverse is the design adopted in 1866, with the scroll over the
eagle's head and the motto IN GOD WE TRUST added. Struck in copper
with a reeded edge. This transitional dies trial may have been
struck in 1865, but it also may have been struck later with other
With Motto restrikes. As pointed out on the USPatterns.com website,
"The first definite appearance of this design was in the April 1870
auction by John Haseltine of coins from the Idler collection." From
the overall look of this piece it appears to have been bronzed,
although there is no mention of bronzing being done to these
patterns in the literature. A faint undertone of red is apparent
beneath the brown patina. Slight evidence of carbon is seen in the
center of the reverse.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 29JU, PCGS# 60633, Greysheet# 12724)
