1878 Half Eagle in Gilt Copper
Judd-1574, PR63
William Barber Design
1878 $5 Half Eagle, Judd-1574, Pollock-1766, High R.6, Gilt,
PR63 PCGS. Ex: Simpson. The William Barber Flowing Hair motif
graces the obverse. Liberty faces left, wearing a headband
eponymously inscribed. E PLURIBUS UNUM is above, the date 1878
below. The reverse offers an eagle with lowered wings in the
center, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM around.
The arrows are long and slender, their tips extending behind and
past the eagle's wing. The olive branch has six leaves. Struck in a
larger diameter than regular half eagle issues, in gilt copper with
a reeded edge. This example is nicely struck, and is smooth save
for a subtle flan flaw on the field near Liberty's mouth. A tiny
reverse rim nick at 1:30 provides an identifier. Population: 2 in
63, 0 finer (9/20).Collecting Patterns – A Brief History and Commentary
