Description
1876 Five Dollar, Struck in Copper
Judd-1484, PR65 Red and Brown
Only Two Examples Known
Ex: Bass
1876 $5 Five Dollar, Judd-1484, Pollock-1637, R.7, PR65 Red and
Brown PCGS. Ex: Simpson. Traditionally considered a regular
dies trial striking, this was undoubtedly produced in the Mint for
sale to favored collectors who were assembling off-metal sets.
Struck in copper with a reeded edge. The Judd reference lists this
issue as also struck in aluminum, but that coin is unconfirmed,
leaving only the two known copper strikes as confirmed off-metal
1875 fives. This is a bright, iridescently toned example whose
fields are deeply reflective and the devices thickly frosted (yet
no Cameo designation has been granted by PCGS). Fully struck
throughout with no obvious or detracting contact marks.Ex: Brinton T. Schorer to Harry Bass (2/1972); Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection (Bowers & Merena 5/1999), lot 1361; Pre-Long Beach Auction (Superior, 2/2003), lot 2157.
