1880 Goloid Metric Dollar in Copper
Judd-1652, PR66+ Red
Single Finest at PCGS

1880 $1 Goloid Metric Dollar, Judd-1652, Pollock-1852, High R.6, PR66+ Red PCGS. Ex: Simpson. The obverse portrait of Liberty faces left wearing a cap inscribed LIBERTY. The top of the cap is ornamented with ears of wheat, cotton leaves, and bolls. E PLURIBUS UNUM is at the top and the date 1880 is below with 13 peripheral stars arranged between. The central reverse expresses the composition of the denomination within a circle of 38 stars. The upper periphery displays the legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and the denomination GOLOID METRIC DOLLAR, while the motto DEO EST GLORIA and 100 CENTS are at the lower border. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. This specimen exhibits radiant fire-red surfaces. The strike is sharp and there is no evidence of contact. Liberty's cheek has a solitary fleck, and the left field shows a few brief, narrow streaks. As of (11/20), PCGS has certified a total of 17 examples of Judd-1652, four as Brown, ten as Red and Brown, and three as Red. The present lot is the single finest graded at PCGS, regardless of color designation.
