Exquisite 1871 Judd-1146 Pattern Dollar, PR64

1871 $1 Dollar, Judd-1146, Pollock-1288, Low R.7, PR64 PCGS. CAC. Ex: H.W. Bass, Jr. Collection. The obverse features Longacre's Liberty wearing an Indian headdress and supporting a Liberty pole with her right hand faces left. Her left hand rests on a globe inscribed LIBERTY. Behind her is a flag ornamented with 22 stars. Thirteen stars surround her, the date 1871 is at the bottom. The reverse is the die used for regular issue Liberty Seated dollars. Struck in silver with a plain edge. This stunning Choice proof has considerable cameo contrast on both sides, with delicate champagne, gold, violet, and blue toning over light silver surfaces. The devices, especially on the obverse, have rich, frosty mint luster. Only about 10 to 12 examples of this pattern are known, with examples appearing infrequently. The most recent auction appearance of Judd-1146 was in January 2009, one of just eight auction offerings in the past 10 years.
Ex: Kagin's (11/1973), lot 1351; Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection (Bowers and Merena, 5/1999), lot 1262.
