1878 Goloid Metric Dollar
Judd-1564, PR64
1878 $1 Goloid Metric Dollar, Judd-1564, Pollock-1755, Low R.7,
PR64 PCGS. Ex: Simpson. A head of Liberty faces left on the
obverse with 13 stars arranged seven before and six after. Liberty
wears a cap inscribed LIBERTY and ornamented with wheat, cotton
leaves, and bolls. E PLURIBUS UNUM is at the top and the date 1878
is below. On the reverse, 38 stars encircle the inscription GOLOID
/ METRIC. / 1 - G. / 16.1 - S. / 1.9 - C. / GRAMS 14.25. The legend
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is above and the denomination expressed as
100 CENTS is below. Presumably struck in standard silver alloy (90%
silver, 10% copper) with a reeded edge. These are reported to have
been struck in silver and in W.W. Hubbell's goloid composition
(5.26% gold, 84.74% silver, and 10.00% copper), but according to
USPatterns.com, "these have never been confirmed by metallurgical
analysis." Silvery-gray surfaces are smooth, if somewhat muted,
with areas of chestnut-gold toning mainly on the reverse. Fully
struck at the centers.Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
