Description
1838 Half Dollar Pattern, Judd-72
A Sharply Struck Proof
1838 P50C Half Dollar, Judd-72, Pollock-75, R.5 -- Improperly
Cleaned -- NCS. Proof. A large bust of Liberty faces left, with
stars and the date at the margins. The reverse features an eagle
with spread wings. For many decades, the obverse design was
attributed to William Kneass, but Gobrecht was almost certainly the
engraver, as the portrait bears close resemblance to the gold eagle
also introduced in 1838. Struck in silver with a reeded edge and
close to medal turn. Mostly retoned peach and lavender-violet,
though hairlines remain on the too-uniform luster.Ex: Bowers and Merena (1/2008), lot 442.
