Red PCGS. Ex: Bass-Simpson. Barber's celebrated "Washlady"
design, a term that has been used to describe the abundantly coifed
portrait since the nineteenth century. The head of Liberty faces
left surrounded by the legend and the date is situated below. She
is wearing a headband inscribed LIBERTY. The headband is ornamented
with ears of wheat, cotton leaves, and bolls. On the reverse, the
denomination is encircled by a ring of dots that is flanked by the
ornamentally framed motto E PLURIBUS UNUM and a wreath of cotton
and wheat. Struck in copper with a reeded edge. Predominantly
orange-red surfaces also exhibit blushes of lilac and hints of
gunmetal-blue. No post-strike detractions are evident, though a
slender lint mark is above the N in ONE. As of (10/20), PCGS has
certified a dozen examples of this rare and popular Judd variety.
Only four are certified as fully Red. Population: 3 in 66 Red, 0
finer (11/20).Ex: Lee Hewitt, 4/1972; Harry W. Bass, Jr. Collection, Part I (Bowers and Merena, 5/1999), lot 1110.
