Description
Extremely Rare Judd-1491 Copper 1876 Double Eagle
PR62 Brown
1876 $20 Twenty Dollar, Judd-1491, Pollock-1644, High R.7, PR62
Brown PCGS. The obverse akin to the regular issue but with
lower letters in LIBERTY and digits in the date compared to the
Type Three obverse, and the reverse close to the Type Three reverse
with spelled-out TWENTY DOLLARS but a larger heraldic eagle design
than adopted. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. This exquisitely
wrought, extremely rare piece has a predominantly violet-brown
obverse, while the reverse shows lighter golden-brown at the
margins and elements of olive and mint in the centers. Minimal
contact, though scattered hairlines in the fields preclude a finer
designation. Given the High R.7 rarity ranking, it comes as little
surprise that this is the best Brown representative graded by PCGS
(6/08).Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2ADH, PCGS# 61813, GSID# 14629)
