1852 Seated Dollar in Copper
Judd-134 Restrike, PR65 Brown
Ex: King Farouk

1852 DT$1 Dollar, Judd-134 Restrike, Pollock-1610, R.8 PR65 Brown PCGS. Ex: Simpson. Dies trial striking of the restrike 1852 Seated dollar, in copper with a reeded edge. This is one of only three examples known. Saul Teichman writes for USPatterns.com that "the earliest occurrence for one of these copper pieces was in Cogan's April 1877 Jenks sale which may indicate that these were struck much later, in the early to mid-1870s, with another batch of silver examples." The present coin was once described at cleaned and retoned, but it shows none of those impairments. The surfaces are deep brown with gold and violet accents. A spot above Liberty's head serves as a convenient pedigree marker. The 1852 dollar is challenging in any grade and is particularly interesting in this composition. Make sure to bid accordingly.
