1853 Seated Dollar, Struck in Copper
Judd-154 Restrike, PR65 Red and Brown

1853 DT$1 Dollar, Judd-154 Restrike, Pollock-183, High R.7, PR65 Red and Brown PCGS. Ex: Simpson. An alleged restrike of the regular dies 1853 Seated dollar, but undoubtedly produced for sale to collectors for their silver counterparts. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. The first piece Saul Teichman was able to trace was in a Haseltine auction in 1876, raising the possibility that these were struck in the late 1860s and early 1870s when James Pollock was Director of the Mint. Saul records only five distinct pieces in auctions over the years. This piece retains significant original red that is especially noticeable when the mirrored fields flash beneath a light.
Ex: Superior, 1/1990; Share Collection (American Numismatic Rarities, 9/2003).
