Judd-336, PR66 Red and Brown

1863 25C Quarter Dollar, Judd-336, Pollock-408, R.7, PR66 Red and Brown NGC. Both sides are of adopted designs, with the motto IN GOD WE TRUST placed on a scroll above the eagle, as adopted in 1866. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. These and other With Motto patterns were actually restrikes made ca. 1869-early 1870s and were offered by the Mint along with other denominations in complete sets. Only a dozen or so pieces of this pattern are believed known. The fields are deeply reflective and each side is covered with bright electric blue patina. A magnificent example that also shows significant cameo contrast beneath the toning.
