Description
Judd-664 1868 Ten Dollar Pattern, PR65
Regular Design in Aluminum
1868 $10 Ten Dollar, Judd-664, Pollock-739, Low R.7, PR65
PCGS. The regular dies for the 1868 eagle, struck in aluminum
with a reeded edge. There are two distinct ten dollar patterns in
aluminum for 1868, and the Judd-664, made with regular dies, is
rarer than the Judd-663 (which bears an experimental design). The
Judd reference lists the Judd-664 as a "Low R.7," which would imply
a known population of close to a dozen pieces, yet expert Web site
USPatterns.com claims "about a half dozen are known." At least four
were issued as part of aluminum pattern sets. Whether this Gem
specimen was part of such a set is unknown, but the surfaces of the
present lot -- in parts pale aluminum-blue and mirrored, in other
places more hazy with a green-gold tint -- are readily appreciated
regardless.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 29PK, PCGS# 60882, Greysheet# 13110)
