Silver Plated 1877 Ten Cents Pattern, Judd-1651
1877 Ten Cents, Judd-1498, Pollock-1651, R.6-7, PR 60 Plated. 38.6 grains. The obverse portrait, designed by William Barber, is similar to the "Sailor Head" design made famous two years earlier, but with smaller lettering on the coronet and lacking the so-called sailor collar. The reverse uses the regular issue dies. Struck in copper with a reeded edge, and believed by Gene Wolfe to have been silver plated in the Mint (Pollock roster number 1). Apparently this specimen was acquired directly from Dr. Judd in the 1960s.From the Gene Wolfe Collection of Pattern Coinage.
